Make the options concrete
Vague options are impossible to compare. Spell out what Option A and Option B actually look like in practice, not just in mood.
- What would each option require?
- What would each option cost?
- What problem is each option trying to solve?
Find the real tradeoff
One option might buy speed but create mess. Another might buy stability but cost time or excitement. Name the real exchange instead of pretending one choice will be perfect.
Test for false ties
Sometimes the options are not equally good. They just both scare you in different ways. Look at which downside is more survivable, more reversible, or more honest for this season of your life.
