Many people do not know what to do in face of a decision(决定),big or small.Most decisions aren't life-changers.But often,the decision isn't between this or that, it's between acting or not. If this worries you, here are some tips.
Jog or ride a bike to nowhere.
Just start moving in hopes of leaving the familiar(熟悉).Walk down every street or path you can find until you lose your way.Then, see where you end up. Remember what it felt like to wonder(疑惑) where you were going?Try to lose yourself more often.It'll make you better at making a decision.
Sit outside with no technology for an hour.
Let yourself get bored.Can you hear the birds singing?The wind blowing?Yourself breathing?Try to do this once a week,then every other day,then every day.One of the reasons we find it hard to make better decisions is that we keep getting attracted(被吸引的) to new things.A break from the noise will lead you to the decision you need to make.
Do something that makes you afraid.
People who have trouble making decisions fear mistakes.Tell someone you love them.Laugh out loud in a public place.Give a speech to a stranger.And when you do this,remember how you feel When you're afraid of a risky situation the next time,tell yourself that you didn't lie.And try to trust the process in the future.
Some of these things may seem foolish,but the more you do them,the more you'll control(控制) yourself.It doesn't matter where you're going.Just go.Once you start moving,you can always change the direction.Do not worry about it.

Brennan Agranoff, a colorblind boy, started his custom sock business in middle school, with a small loan(贷 款)he got from his parents. Up till now, he has sold over 1 million dollars' worth of socks online in the last four years.
