Decisions

A speaking club by @annymate_english

Is it easy for you to make a decision?

Tomorrow will be rainy. What will you do?

Today your friends are coming to you for dinner. What will you eat?

It was a difficult day and you would like to watch a movie in the evening. What will you watch?

Types of Decision Makers

What type of a decision maker do you think you are?

What are the most time-consuming decisions?

What to buy someone for their birthday

What to wear for a special occasion

Buying a sofa

What colour to paint a room

An instant decision is a fast choice, a decision that we make based on current circumstances.

Let's play! One of you reads the situation, acts it and chooses a "friend in need". This "friend" should give a solution, offer help immediately.

I'm an alcoholic

I weigh 100 kilos

I've lost all your money

What will you buy me for my b-day?

I'm so stressed-out

It's raining outside

I'm leaving the town

I don't want to cook tonight

Were these instant decisions good or bad? Is it good or bad to make quick decisions?

Quick Decisions Create Regret

Speed Reveals Certainty

One of the skills for achieving business success is an ability to make quick decisions. Also the decision should be the right one.

When people feel they were rushed while deciding,they regret the decisions they make even when they turn out well.

Impulse buying

Do you often buy something without thinking about it first?

When making a decision, what are the possible ways to do it?

Flipism

Asking a friend

Consulting a horoscope

Meditating

What are life's biggest decisions?

Would you allow your children to make important decisions about the future?

How do you think computers help people make decisions?

Let's Role Play!

Student BYou're a best friend of Student A. You're not sure where to go on holiday this summer, but you're so tired of work and want just to relax.

Student AYou want to go on holiday with your best friend this summer. You wanted to surprise him/her and booked a hiking tour to the mountains for two of you. You hate spending holidays at the beach and you prefer active holidays.

It's not easy to make decisions, but you can get better at making decisions, big and small, with practice and time.

Thanks
