Making decisions can be hard enough without enduring the extra pressure of uncertainty. You will find yourself here again and again having to make hard decisions while under uncertainty.

Prepare yourself now.

What can you do to make great decisions during times like these?

First decide what you want from the situation you're dealing with. It's important that you don't compromise on this. Knowing what you want doesn't mean it's going to happen, but knowing what you want increases the chances it will happen because you will have a clear and direct target to shoot for.

Some people compromise and want less because they feel like they're asking for too much or they fear being disappointed if it doesn't happen.

Accept that you can't control everything. And know exactly what you want. You can hold both of these at the same time. Desire and Expectation or two different things. 

Never place limits on your desire except for common sense things like not hurting others. Never limit your desire to logic or what you think is realistic, in other words. 

History is full of great men and women who have changed the world and who have accomplished unrealistic goals because their desire was stronger than logic.

Expectation often sets us up for disappointment. Engage in expectation as little as possible. You will have expectations. It's natural. The less you invest in expectation though the better you will be able to adapt if your expectations don't work out.

Now that you know what you want out of the situation it should make your decision clearer and you should feel less uncertain. If it's not clear or you still feel as uncertain or more uncertain, keep working on getting clear about what you want from the situation until what you want is clear and you feel more certain.

You don't need to feel 100% certain especially since you don't control everything. You just need to feel certain about what you want. This will make outside uncertainties easier to deal with. 

Now take action in the direction of what you want!

Too often people try to move away from what they don't want instead of moving toward what they do want. This is a Meta Program in NLP. Meta Programs are the direction in which you think.

Making great decisions under uncertainty means you need to train your attention on what you want while acknowledging what you don't want. 

Decisions also require action. Your decision is incomplete without action. I'm sure you've heard the saying 'Not making a decision is a decision'.

The worst decision a person can make is a decision of omission because it leaves you at the mercy of circumstance.

If you've been thinking about attending Core Transformation but haven't made a decision yet, now is the time before it passes you by!
