Nancy’s Answer
Hi, Felipe,
I think that you are asking about decision-making. You mention making a personal decision based on results. Making good decisions goes in steps:
1. What is the problem? Be specific.
2. What are the alternatives, or choices available? It makes no sense to pick something out of your reach or something that is not a realistic option. For example, if after you apply for financial aid a college is still too expensive, it may not be a realistic choice for you.
3. What are the best and worst things about each choice?
4. What about the choices matters to you the most? Is it money, the results, as you put it, the path to reaching your goal, the people involved, or the location, for example?
5. Make a decision and begin there. If new problems or benefits come up, start at the beginning.
Try using these steps on little decisions first.
Then use this method with big decisions with confidence.

Ricardo’s Answer
That depends on the results for which you are making the decision about. You should figure what the problem is first before you solve it.
1. Find a solution to the problem.
2. Find other ways to go about the problem.
3. Finding the best and worst choice.
4. Which choice is the most important and which is the least important.
5. Start making the decision as you go on to finishing it.
