Alphabetical order.  Can’t remember where I heard this, but it helps me in matters of less consequence, such as “Which restaurant shall I go to?”

For example, one starts with “B,” the other with “M.”  “B” is first in the alphabet, so I shall go to “B.”

If I have a very strong, immediate reaction of, “But no!  I want to go to “M!”  Well, then, my mind’s still made up, isn’t it?

Even when you don’t take the alphabetical choice, the tactic works because it helps you to clarify and know your feelings without agonizing over it.

Or maybe it just helps me to make the decision because it gives me something to stamp my foot at and say “No” to?  Sometimes I like to be contrary.
