Dear NFPs, ENFPs in particular:
I suck at making decisions.
It's hallmark Ne to be able to see 5,000 potential paths and their good and bad points, but not to know which one is best for me.
I'm at a place now where I need to make a BIG decision - my career path decision - and I'm pretty at a loss. I research research research and I'm still not getting much of anywhere. My fear is that I'll choose something, pour money into it, and then not be good at it/ not like it.
The problem is, I don't see a huge correlation between my decisions and their consequences. Sometimes I make a "heart" decision and it makes me unhappy, and sometimes I make a "head" decision and it makes me unhappy. Sometimes I choose something completely random and it's perfect. But it can't just be completely up to me to choose if I like it... can it?
Do you guys experience a similar problem making decisions?
If so, how do you deal with it?
