Make sure that you know who you are; what you expectations are; about the other person or organization or contract that you are signing up to.<\/li>\n<li>People reveal themselves pretty early on in the piece; what you see at the start is usually what you get later on when things are not right (of course there exceptions to this rule) &#8211; so be observant.<\/li>\n<li>If you are a person who struggles with decision making. Become comfortable with making small decisions before you start to make the bigger decisions<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t avoid making decisions \u2013inaction is a decision<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t ask others to make your decisions for you as you are asking another person to define the life you live. The other person will make the decision based on their own values, rules and boundaries, not yours. If you don\u2019t like the outcome, you will make them responsible for the outcome, but ultimately you invited them to make this decision for you.<\/li>\n<li>Use your feelings to guide you to the decision that feels comfortable. Taking risk can involve feeling uncomfortable. Remind yourself of all the good decisions you have made in the past. \u00a0These decisions had a feeling associated with the moment when your system said go- ahead\u2013 use your past memories to check whether the new area has the same \u2018feel\u2019 to it.<\/li>\n<li>Develop trust in yourself. Making decisions is an exercise in trust. Not trust in the world around you, but trust in yourself.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t trust yourself, explore why you don\u2019t.\u00a0 Understand the reasons you made the decisions in the past. Then treat learning to trust like training for a race like the marathon.\u00a0 Go for small runs every day by making conscious decisions on a daily basis \u2013 look at the decisions that feel positive and why.\u00a0 With practice you can develop a \u2018trust muscle\u2019 based in your feelings.\u00a0 This \u2018trust muscle\u2019 will guide you in the future.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><em>Trust<\/em><\/strong> yourself and you will be comfortable with the outcomes you have chosen. In awareness decisions reflect your values, your rules and your boundaries.
