PREVIOUS: Bad Decision Styles – #1

PART 2: Next 6 of 18 types of unsound decision making (D.M.) styles & their corrections. (No known source).
While these types represent dysfunction, they’re based on each person’s native approach to life, with the addition of an unhealthy upbringing.

4 general Categories of D.M.
✥ By Command – made without input from anyone else
✥ By Consultation – inviting & include input from others
✥ By Vote – discuss options & then call for a vote, majority rules
✥ By Consensus – keep talking until everyone agrees on one outcome

Warning SIGNALS that:
a. you’re about to make a weak, unhealthy or dangerous decision (interchange a. & b.)  = WHEN YOU : 
• are exhausted, sick, emotionally distressed or overwhelmed
• are not willing to change your mind when a situation changes
• base your choice only on fear, anxiety & low-self-esteem
• don’t plan for dealing with difficult people or unexpected events
YOU :
• don’t consider the bigger context, or the possible consequences to you or to others
• ignore available information (newer, easier) that would help you make a better choice about a person or situation
• only think of what you want & how you feel, ignoring everyone else
• twist yourself to fit other people’s expectations of how you should behave, conform to peer pressure or automatically agree with the majority (being overly dependent on others)

b. you have made a weak, unhealthy or dangerous decision = WHEN YOU :
• acted before you were ready or before the time was right
• based a decision on what you thought you should do, rather than what was right for your True Self & the current situation
• chose a way of doing something so you wouldn’t have to ask for help
• didn’t do anything even tho’ it was important to act
YOU :
• ignored glaring problems or important factors that you did know about a situation
• ignored hints that told you something was wrong or there was too much uncertainty
• made a choice using familiar CDs, such as B & W thinking
• picked an action based on “well at least I” ……have a job, don’t look stupid, have a boyfriend, am safe, to available information — which comes from a poverty or victim mentality
