“When making a decision of minor importance, I have always found it advantageous to consider all the pros and cons.”
— Sigmund Freud
Simplified Meaning:
When you need to decide something that isn't very big or important, like what book to read next or what you want for dinner, it's helpful to think about the good and bad points of each option. For example, imagine you are choosing between watching a movie at home or going out to see a new film at the theater. At home, it’s comfortable, and you can pause the movie whenever you like, but the theater has a big screen and better sound. By listing these pros and cons, you can make a clearer choice. Taking the time to weigh these small decisions helps you practice making good choices. This way, you're more likely to feel happy with your decision because you've thought about both sides. It's a useful habit because it makes even small decisions easier and helps avoid regrets later on. Plus, practicing this way can help when you need to make more significant decisions in the future.
