If it's a bigger decision. I assign two decisions to the flip of a coin. The actual outcome doesn't matter. Instead, pay attention to your reaction to the coin flip.
- jonathanyc 8y agoThis is how I decided where to go to college :) I think one reason this "works" is that by the time I've gotten to the point where I'm willing to decide based on a coin flip I've normally saturated myself with as much information and argument as I can expect to get. If I'm still on the fence, that probably means that even if the end the decision is very high stakes, I probably have judged the two choices about equal.

No - not so that chance shall decide the affair while you're passively standing there moping; but the moment the penny is up in the air, you suddenly know what you're hoping. ” ― Piet Hein
