How often do you change your mind?

qualitygal · ‎10-04-2010

If you make a decision is it once you've gathered all the facts or are you quick to decide?

Do you stick with your decision, or change your mind?

My decisions can be 50/50 if new information comes along to make me rethink something. I don't always want to decide right away, some things need to be pondered.

How about you?

It depends on the situation.

There are some circumstances in which decisions are easy for me to make-- The answer comes from my gut. I rarely, if ever, change my mind.

However, I find that I have the most difficulty in making up my mind when it comes to ridiculous things. Sometimes something as simple as picking out a new top or a pair of shoes can have me agonizing for long periods of time. Crazy, but true!

Constantly, unless I'm in a mood!

If it's a big decision, I do my homework. Had septic problems and they told me $4,000 to fix. I said no, went inside and made about 17 calls until I found someone to do it for $650. When I bought a car years ago, I waited 24 hours before signing the papers to make sure I was doing the right thing. Same with my Medicare - the agent tried to get me to sign up when I found a good plan, but I told them no, I had to do my research - then once I make my decision, I feel good about it and don't over think it. I also go with my gut feelings,they have never failed me.

I rely on intuition. If I feel something is "right", I go with it.

Too often, especially when making plans. When family says "but I thought you said" I generally come back with "I changed my mind".

I was going to post on this thread, but then I decided against it.

I change my mind alot. When it comes to big decisions, I try to get all the facts and go with my gut, but I always try to give myself time.

On small things, I drive myself nuts changing my mind sometimes.

It totally depends on the situation, as I think it should for anyone. I don't decide what to eat for dinner or which car to buy in the same way because those are not equal decisions.
