SO GOOD!! I've used this method FOREVER and it WORKS!! Some call it intuition and don't pay attention. I play this game with people struggling with choice. The WCS is another I've asked myself throughout my adult years. It doesn't work for everyone-those with a low risk-tolerance, but it works great for me ... that said, I needed to hear this again because I've not applied it much lately - SOOO, I LOVE the BCS (#3) method! It really clicks with me at this later stage in life. Thanks Marie! xxoo
Hi Marie. This video is amazing! It reminds me of when I was considering leaving my corporate job to become a professional organizer! First I did some snooping around with colleagues through a survey I created. Then I took an online course on entrepreneurship. Last, I experimented with family and friends, pretending I was a professional organizer so I could see the results. Well, everything was positive, so I made the leap quite boldly. Eleven years later, I present all kinds of organizing tips to groups and clubs (organizing papers, space, time, money, holiday planning, first baby, estate liquidation, etc.) You are awesome!!!
That is so awesome! I actually was searching for how to make decisions because I have a very hard time making even simple decisions. I also want to declutter but can’t let go of a lot of things, but really want to! These things are really holding me back in my life
Love the technique of writing it down about stepping out of worst scenarios. It makes so much sense how people been able to do brave things. Best scenario: I land a freelancing job as a photographer/film maker who travels and documents important culture issues. Worst Case Scenario: People hate my work for life.
1- Listen to your body, do you feel expansive or contractive 2- Worst Case Scenario test 3- Try it out, is there a way you can test drive the scenario? nothing is permanent. 4- Best Case Scenario test
I recently had to decide if it was best to leave a job. I am a natural strategist and thought through everything...what sealed it you ask? When I realized my health was being brought down...losing 7lbs in 1 week because of not eating from stress, dreading everyday and not being able to sleep...I said to myself the worst that could happen is I stay and continue down this path. The best is I leave and keep my sanity and health and move on to a new job. I'm going to Ireland in March and am taking these few weeks to RELAX! Also, I have other things in my favor to deal with that job so it may pay off in the long run anyway.
john mcdonald oh I'm not moving I'm visiting from the US. Excited to see something new and fresh but who knows I may decide to move there if I really like it. No time like the present!!!
I wish you all the best on your adventures.... and I wish you clarity in the future, I hope you find the path that brings you health wealth and happiness. You deserve it. xo
i know this is off topic but Marie your outfit is to DIY for! 😍 i'm going to make sewing tutorials inspired by business babes and i'm definetely adding you. your style is colorful, fierce and flawless 💃💖🤗 thanks for sharing your gift with the world
My first Marie video I've watched...great video!Will definitely look for some more.Between your intelligence, enthusiasm ,personality and of course your beauty ,you are without a doubt a gift to all of us.Thanks for being you🙂
This is literally the most helpful video or even advice I have ever had!!! I will def. try these steps and share it here. Thank you so much! You are the best😆💕
Thank you! Thank you! I tried the first test and I was able to feel super expansive and my decision is very clear. I love you and I’m grateful to have found you!!
I have watched dozens of your awesome, inspiring videos, and I have never bothered commenting online on any video on youtube before, but just wanted to let you know this was my favourite video of yours! 🌷It was perfect. Thx for what you do!
Great video! It sounds very similar to another one that you did in the past, but built on a bit. Very useful stuff! I think my sister will be made to watch this... hmmmm... ;D
Thank you so much I really needed it... I'm thinking of getting into styling career and finding an internship but I also need to finish my degree of fashion design which i failed the last year due to mental issues and extreme self doubt but I need to decide whether I want to take the last year up again and get the degree and I'm very anxious and scared and all the memories of that year come and i feel like i wanna go to sleep.. if at all there was a way I could just be more excited and b strong and just do it.. but I sometimes think will I b really able to do it...!! I'm 25 I'll be 26 (in july) when I start the third year... and I desperately need to work get a job and earn and be independent, my parents insult me every now and then (the source of self doubt) over this and it's too much to handle I've been through this shit since as long as I can remember It's alarming time and really stressful I DON'T KNOW what to do.. It is a passionate dream to be a designer and be in the industry... I can earn as a stylist and use that money to support my passion for designing or finish the damn degree.. I'm getting a diploma certificate for the two years I finished though... Don't know.. HELP...!!!!
This is also great for controlling your reactions and feelings when life gets HARD. I just yesterday heard something scary (a loved one with a bad medical diagnosis, or something out of my control) my body goes into shock and my heart hurts (no kidding). Of course it's not healthy (or comfortable) but going through this THINKINGLY (is that a word? mine now!), writing it down, can really really help get back from PANIC BRAIN/BODY to Okay, what do we do now, and take control of things. Thanks, Marie.
The payoff/best case senerio for the series of videos I want to start making on my YT channel would be that I would be starting a really important dialogue in the creative community and help people start creating what they love again :D. I really loved tip #1 and taking cues from my body...that's how I've made all sorts of important decisions in my life ❤💗❤ Thanks Marie!
This is on point, Marie! Deep gratitude for your input, they are all the BEST tests that I heard expressed about this topic, something really essential, to everything we decide everyday. The body test is so true. I will put this video into my guidelines folder!
This is a weird comment, but watching this reminds of an early scene in Fahrenheit 451 when Montag comes home and his wife is watching TV with her friends. Love the channel, just a weird thought.
Good advice. Little did I know that this is the path I use when I make big decisions. Nice to hear it in an organized methodology. It should help down the road when I struggle because I forgot one of the tests and am mulling over a decision. #Fearnothing
I’m desperately unhappy in my job, have been for a long time. I tried a new role in order to give the co Panay one last bite of the cherry but unfortunately it’s still not for me and I can’t wait to get out. I start a new job in a few weeks, the money is better and the shifts are fantastic. It doesn’t set my world on fire when I think about it though. If anything, I’m kind of dreading it. I have a glimmer of a second opportunity but the money isn’t great and there is travelling involved where as there isn’t with the job I’ve just taken. I can’t however, stop thinking about it. I really want this job but the financial thing is holding me back and i’m in absolute turmoil over it. I’ve looked at making provisions to cut back etc but I’m tired of living a life where I’m constantly making sacrifices, I’d kind of like to earn some decent money for a change it’s just a shame the other job didn’t pay better.
this is great if you know your human design and are a sacral chakra authority - the yes/no will feel a lot more clear than others. If you're an emotional authority, that might go up and down throughout the month.
Thanks, Marie for this and your other free videos. So glad to have discovered your teachings at a turning point in my career via Sue Bee Zimmerman. I think of that old saying - when the student is ready - the teacher will appear. Sharpening my pencils and writing this good SH*T down. Kickin it in Canada - B
This was so helpful! Thank you so much for sharing this advice Marie! While a good part of me does wish this video existed when I was an 18 yer old choosing my university degree, as you've triumphantly stated, " most things you can stop, evolve, or reverse." =)
Hi Marie, thank you so much for this! I myself like to do the following things as well: gather information, precisely state the decision, give this assignment to my subconsciousness and let the answer come to me. And in addition to your 'try and find out'-suggestion: make the decision smaller, break it down into actionable items and see along the way (of doing). Have fun everyone! Regards, Sousan Tam
Offering truckers the convenience of a great haircut/style 24hrs a day is the least essence of gratitude for they’re dedication to keeping necessities in rotation
I've become scared of making any decisions lately. Seems like all of the decisions that I make have been the wrong ones. Big decisions and little Decisions both. I made a decision to buy a travel trailer and that turned out to be a disaster as an example. Now I can't even make a decision to buy it set of sheets. It's crazy.
Just got admitted to excellent phd program but I think I made. Terrible mistake leaving my job for this. However I still want to do it. My job is really well paid and pretty awesome but the phd is also a great opportunity to grow, although a fear the depression and lack of money that comes with it. I have had nightmares and cannot sleep because of this.
still struggling. it's a good problem to have but taking a monthly annuity or a roll over on a pension, and it is a permanent decision, not changeable once made
The last tip was not touched by many of the videos that i have watched so far ! Great tip!! Since you have 666K subscribers, let me subscribe to change the number to a least beastly number. lol
I moved to another state for love and have a good job offer. Only think is I left my family and 2 adult kids. In their early 20s who mean the world to me. I’ve never been away from them and am starting to feel unhappy. Not Imaging being away from them. If I go back my relationship will end since we live in different states. My heart breaks other way. I’ve been here maybe 4 months and am able to go back and forth but unsure. Any advice? Also my relationship has been long distance for 2 years before making a move
My current decision .. keep and fix up my house. I lived in with my ex . Now divorced and it’s my house.. start fresh!Rent an apt. / sell or rent out the house. I am awful at making decisions!
Wow! What an amazing surprise it is to tune in to the weekly Marie TV and find that your question was answered! How cool!!.. When I originally wrote this question, the scary thing I was needing to decide about, I went ahead and did it, and it was one of the most empowering things I've done in my life! This question actually came back around at the perfect time as I make a huge life decision that has to do with my business, education, and finances. The best thing that could happen is that I make that leap in my business to 6 figures, maybe even 7 or more. I'll also get to help a lot of people and support a lot of positive world changes! I loved the Missy quote too.. One of these days Marie we are going to have a dance off!.. Mark my words, it's on! :)
Your quote "clarity comes from action" has been on my bedroom wall for the past year or so. It really helped me launch my RUclips channel and find exactly what I wanted to share. I was too nervous thinking that I needed all of the "perfect" ideas and spent about a year just thinking, then I heard your quote in a past video and just started. It didn't start off pretty, haha but it eventually got there and now I love the clarity of my vision for it! 🙏🏽🤗 Namaste beautiful Marie and Team Forleo.
when ever I need to take a decision I just make list of "What I will get from this decision" and " what I'm going to loss from this decision" and that makes everything clear to me :)
SO GOOD!! I've used this method FOREVER and it WORKS!! Some call it intuition and don't pay attention. I play this game with people struggling with choice.

Dropping my dream album. Putting in 100% without having huge fan base
Congrats and good luck with the album! - Team Forleo
Love the technique of writing it down about stepping out of worst scenarios. It makes so much sense how people been able to do brave things.
Best scenario: I land a freelancing job as a photographer/film maker who travels and documents important culture issues.
Worst Case Scenario: People hate my work for life.
Thank you for the nice thoughts
I believe that whatever happens is the best thing that could happen, but we often aren't objective and intelligent enough to see that right on :)
1- Listen to your body, do you feel expansive or contractive
2- Worst Case Scenario test
3- Try it out, is there a way you can test drive the scenario? nothing is permanent.
4- Best Case Scenario test
The missy Elliott quote ! Yesssssss! Hahahaha marie forleo you are a genuis!
I recently had to decide if it was best to leave a job. I am a natural strategist and thought through everything...what sealed it you ask?
When I realized my health was being brought down...losing 7lbs in 1 week because of not eating from stress, dreading everyday and not being able to sleep...I said to myself the worst that could happen is I stay and continue down this path. The best is I leave and keep my sanity and health and move on to a new job.
I'm going to Ireland in March and am taking these few weeks to RELAX! Also, I have other things in my favor to deal with that job so it may pay off in the long run anyway.
BlairWaldorf2013 where are you moving from?
john mcdonald oh I'm not moving I'm visiting from the US. Excited to see something new and fresh but who knows I may decide to move there if I really like it. No time like the present!!!
BlairWaldorf2013 I hope you have an amazing time while visiting
I wish you all the best on your adventures.... and I wish you clarity in the future, I hope you find the path that brings you health wealth and happiness. You deserve it. xo
What is the worst than can happen is a tool that I am going to use for sure.
i know this is off topic but Marie your outfit is to DIY for! 😍 i'm going to make sewing tutorials inspired by business babes and i'm definetely adding you. your style is colorful, fierce and flawless 💃💖🤗 thanks for sharing your gift with the world
Her hair is to diy for.

Thank you so much! I'm currently trying to find a new career, cause the current one isn't what I want to do for the rest of my life.
She is full of wisdom.
This is on point, Marie! Deep gratitude for your input, they are all the BEST tests that I heard expressed about this topic, something really essential, to everything we decide everyday. The body test is so true. I will put this video into my guidelines folder!
Been racking my head about leaving NYC. Will try this and test my potential new town! Brilliant
This is a weird comment, but watching this reminds of an early scene in Fahrenheit 451 when Montag comes home and his wife is watching TV with her friends.

I am an emotional authority. Ugh!!

I think this is a great video= Yes I agree - our bodies do tell us sometimes with feelings. Or if I hit a Wall of ---- sometimes that a sign .
That last part. Haha... always loved how you take things on, Marie. Attitude is everything.
Ratatatatatatata tata....hehehe 😊👍🏼

Hey Marie, I would love to see one comfortable episode of MarieTV with you chillin on a couch in sweats or something. Would be cool!
Helpful and entertaining.
Thank you so much

I made a decision to buy a travel trailer and that turned out to be a disaster as an example. Now I can't even make a decision to buy it set of sheets. It's crazy.
Always follow your intuition.
Thank you, ❤️
this was a really great video and solid advice, thank you!
Thanks Marie!
Very, VERY USEFUL advice! Thank you, Marie!

Hilarious missy reference.
My current decision .. keep and fix up my house. I lived in with my ex . Now divorced and it’s my house.. start fresh!Rent an apt. / sell or rent out the house. I am awful at making decisions!
That's a huge decision, Candeelyn, but we know the decision will come to you. You can do it! 💗🙌
@@TeamForleo thank you . I hope so bcuz my friends are starting to think I’m crazy splitting everything into a thousand veins analyzing!
What if you dont identify if you expand or not?
i love this girl!
love you Marie
Oh Marie, you make me laugh. Thanks for the advice
I'm in LOVE with your outfit!
If I say YES to this job in Texas, I will automatically bump up in pay and 2 titles,
be careful: they'll tape the red dot with gaffers tape and then you'll won't know. Those sneaky camera operators. LOL
Petard King. you comment is better than this video. Great wisdom.
=) Thank you.
You are so funny!!!!!!🤪😜🤣😂
sorry but your first test is confusing... contraction also means fear
I am trying really hard to focus on your advice but I can't because I am obsessing over your outfit. lol
♡♡♡
You look like you may be an Investor on Shark Tank.
Hhhhhhhaaaaaaaa 😆😆😆 I love Missy Elliot
The decision is to leave the university because the department does not want it
Thanks for the advice!.. and your hair is NOT to long, please don't cut it.
tratatatattata hahahahahahahah :)
what if your decision will leave you unemployed? yikes.
The examples are so deep. I just don’t know if I should get a cat or not XD
I came back to this video and found my own comment. Now I am wondering if I should take a job in Germany... (I live in Guatemala)
Wow! What an amazing surprise it is to tune in to the weekly Marie TV and find that your question was answered! How cool!!.. When I originally wrote this question, the scary thing I was needing to decide about, I went ahead and did it, and it was one of the most empowering things I've done in my life!

The best thing that could happen is that I make that leap in my business to 6 figures, maybe even 7 or more. I'll also get to help a lot of people and support a lot of positive world changes!
I loved the Missy quote too.. One of these days Marie we are going to have a dance off!.. Mark my words, it's on! :)

loooved it! Just the perfect combination of comedy and inspiration
