Tips on Making a Decision
Decision-making never ends. It is an important part of everyday life, and it is how we choose our path. Sometimes we leave things to luck. Other times we take a more active role. Here are some of the ways we usually make decisions.
◆ Make a list of pros and cons(利与弊). When you try to make a difficult decision, you can take out a piece of paper, and then list the pros and cons of each choice.
◆ Ask a friend. While I don’t think this is always true, I can see how friends can point out certain things that we may be unaware of. By getting a choice from a third party who knows us well, we can get good ideas that we didn’t take into consideration before.
◆ Some decisions require that we know more about the subject we are deciding on. Making a choice without first doing some research can turn things into a nightmare(噩梦), so don’t hurry. Take your time to search Google or Wikipedia or find a forum(论坛)to ask a couple of questions. Be careful and check your sources.
◆ Go to an expert. Seldom are we the most knowledgeable person on a particular subject. Our friends can sometimes be no better. Investing(投资)? Talk to a market analyst. Feeling depressed? Go to see a psychologist. Not sure how to write a book? Discuss tips with other authors.
A.Do your research. |
B.Leave our choices to chance. |
C.We make decisions in all kinds of ways. |
D.These can be important questions to ask. |
E.This can help provide a bigger picture of what you are working with.
F.In this case it may be better to get advice from an expert in the field.
G.Some studies have shown that others may know us better than ourselves.

College life can become a great struggle because students have to balance school, a social life, and sometimes a job as well. The following steps could help the grades of college students.
Go to class. Why did your parents pay for your tuition or why are your parents paying their taxes for financial aid? Even when you don't feel like attending class, just go.Many classes have in-class assignments, pop quizzes, and case studies that only could be taken in class. If you are not there, you might lose points.
. College is all about multitasking. Planners can really help you to balance homework, due dates and tests. You should try to get your work done early, then you will have less stress.
Be business-like about your education. If you had a job, you would have to go to your job at 9 a.m and stay there until 5 p.m. If you did the same thing in college, you would be great. Go to class, go to the library, study seriously, at 5 p.m put away the books and go home. Once in a while you might have to work late, just like at a real job.
.Everyone studies in different ways. Some can study with a lot of noise and others want silence. Some can't even study with music on and some need dead silence. Some like the library and some like to study with friends, or even outside.
. Some students start better than they finish. They do that in order to give themselves room to slack near the end of the semester, which can be a mistake. Push yourself to do your best on every assignment. Stay on top of your game and don't lose focus.
A. Stay organized. |
B.Maintain 100% effort throughout the semester. |
C.You might get participation points, and the professor will also get to know you better. |
D. The rest of the day would be your own time. |
