Deciding & Choosing（2）

決定與選擇

01

Some people?remain undecided?because they’re?afraid to?make a?costly mistake?(a mistake with serious negative consequences).?In this case,?weighing the possible outcomes?(analyzing the possible future results) can be helpful. Other people are always?questioning themselves and?having second thoughts?(reconsidering, doubting your previous decision) about the choices they’ve already made.?

(中文解釋?zhuān)?/strong>

有些人猶豫不決是因?yàn)樗麄?span style="text-decoration-line: underline;">害怕犯下代價(jià)高昂的錯(cuò)誤（一個(gè)會(huì)帶來(lái)嚴(yán)重負(fù)面后果的錯(cuò)誤）。在這種情況下，權(quán)衡所有可能的后果（分析未來(lái)可能的結(jié)果）可能會(huì)有所幫助。其他人總是質(zhì)疑自己，并對(duì)他們已經(jīng)做出的選擇有第二個(gè)想法（重新考慮，懷疑你以前的決定）。

02

Although it might seem attractive to?keep your options open?as long as possible, you?run the risk?of waiting so long that you end up?having no choice?(being limited to only one course of action). It’s far better to develop?sound judgment?(the intelligent ability to decide things) so that you can?make wise decisions(good and smart decisions) and be?confident about?them.?

(中文解釋?zhuān)?/strong>

盡管盡可能長(zhǎng)時(shí)間地保留你的選擇看起來(lái)很吸引人，但你會(huì)冒著等待太久而最終別無(wú)選擇的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)（被限制在一個(gè)行動(dòng)過(guò)程中）。建立明智的判斷力（決定事情的智能能力）會(huì)好的多，這樣你就能做出明智的決定（好的和聰明的決定），并對(duì)它們充滿信心。
