If I'm having a hard time making a decision, I usually write a pro's and con's list, but I've recently found a better strategy to look at my options.

It's called the 10-10-10 rule developed by Suzy Welch. She says it's a better way to look at your options, and all you have to do is answer three simply questions-

1. What are the consequences of this decision in 10 minutes?

2. What about in 10 months?

3. What are the consequences of this decision in 10 years?

Just writing about it makes me more calm, so maybe Suzy is on to something we all can use.  Try it the next time you have a tough decision to make! I know I will.
