Pray about it. And talk to trusted friends. Also, making a list of pros and cons might help.

There's no way I would answer that question without a LOT more details...
-
I agree with Stableboy.
-
Discuss it with family and friends that you can trust to be discreet and objective.

The several times I've had to make a decision that would have long-term implications, I always sat down and wrote a list of the good things I can think of that would happen as a result of this decision. Then I wrote down a list of the bad things. I would walk around with the list for a few days or a week, jotting things down as they came to me. Then after about a week or so, I'd sit down with my lists and weigh them out. Good luck!

It sounds simplistic, but you can start by writing down the pros and cons. What would you gain? What would you lose? Are there things you fear about the change, and are those fears reasonable? Might those things you fear happen regardless of making the change? Will the change harm someone you love? Will you have regrets if you do not make the change? Answer yourself as honestly as you can, write down your responses, and put your list away for a few days. Bring it out again and review it, so you can see if your fears are temporary or realistic, and whether it makes you happy to think about this change. Don't make the change if you feel rushed or pressured, but when you can see things calmly and objectively! Best of luck, and I hope you can smile about whichever decision you make!

Weigh up the pros and cons, discuss it with people you can trust, decide what you are going to do and stick to it.

Imagine where you want to be in life in say 2-3 years. That should clarify things and make it an easy choice.
-
Make a list of pros and cons for each of the options... The answer might become a little clearer at that point. Take advice from PEOPLE WHO YOU WANT TO BE LIKE. ( example: Don't take money advice from someone who isn't finantially where you would Like to be) But ask as many people as possible. If you want to share what the decision is, I am sure that everyone on AB would help you;however, I know that it might be private and personal.
-
I would look at I closely for a couple of days and go ahead with the decision made.
-
start by weighing how much you have to lose against how much you have to gain..Writing it down sometimes helps.
-
That is funny because I just made the decision to quit my job and go into a different field. Sometimes you have to get yourself set up to make these kinds of choices and have a bit of a safety net, like a little money in the bank, and then step out and take some risks or your whole life is about just keeping an even keel and never chasing any of your dreams. The best advice I can tell you, since I don't know what the decision is, is to make up your mind and don't look back with any regrets. Keep moving forward with the choice you made.
-
Just take one small step at a time and don't let yourself be taken advantage of , by your changes - Sorry I really don't have much to go on + 5
-
you could start by praying about it if you believe in that sort of thing I know many a times it has helped me in my life if you don't believe in it then write all the pros and cons of the decision down and weigh them carefully thendecide which ones are more important to you the pros or the cons

It doesn't even depend on what the devil you or any one else is evaluating. There is a logical procedure to making a decision whether to do something or not to do that same thing. BEFORE you do anything, you MUST “get your ducks lined-up”. There’s an old saying: The only stupid question is the question you don't ask." THEN, you have to ask questions of knowledgeable people. DON'T be afraid to ask questions - and keep asking questions until you get understandable answers to your questions. This requires persistence and tenacity. Will some folks think you're a pain in the neck [and another place]? Absolutely. Don't settle for "fluff" answers or "smoke and mirrors" answers. After getting ALL your questions answered to your satisfaction, HOW do you evaluate and make your decision? Benjamin Franklin developed a very simple, yet very effective system. Sit down in a very quiet place. NO TV, ipod, radio or any other interruptions or distractions. At the top on a blank sheet of paper, write the situation/challenge/problem you are faced with: Should I/we do . . .? After the question draw a vertical line down the middle and a horizontal line across the top of that vertical line - much like a very large upper case "T". On the left side of that middle vertical line, write "For" or "+". On the right side of that middle vertical line, write "Against" or "-". Under that +, you number and write down ALL those things or points which could help you to go FOR that question. Under that -, you number and write down ALL those things or points which could help you NOT to go or Against that question. You can use multiple sheets of paper for one career. You can take as long OR as little time as you like. This is your career and your life you are getting answers about.. Do the same for any and all other careers you’re interested in. You can switch back from sheet to sheet and from + to - and then from - to +. . Look at the numbers between the all your sheets: When the + outnumber/outweigh the -, do it. When the - outnumber/outweigh the +, don't do it. Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it! VTY, Ron Berue Yes, that is my real last name! Sources: My wonderful family! The many books I read, highlighted and made marks and notes in. The many tapes I listened to My terrific teachers, instructors, professors, mentors and coaches!

Study it out for yourself using all the resources you possibly can. Come up with the best answer you can. Then pray and ask your Heavenly Father if your conclusion was correct, or one that He supports. This is the method God himself laid out (http://scriptures.lds.org/en/dc/9/8#8).
