How to make decisions

Ok, I’ve come up with a decision making procedure that seems to work quite nicely and doesn’t take too much time.

  • Step 1: Identify options
  • Step 2: Reduce to most important binary decision (do most critical option O or don’t do most critical option O)
  • Step 3: Generate relevant criteria to evaluate the options
  • Step 4: Evaluate both options according to the criteria
  • Step 5: Count how often one options is superior in one criterion than the alternative option
  • Step 6 (optional): Sleep over the decision.
