I start by making the decision. Wait a day, then see how I feel about it. If I’m reasonably confident, I go to a few people that I trust and tell them about the decision I made. I get feedback, and take some time to process it. Adjust my decision if necessary, and if so repeat the process.

If there’s a time limit (decision needs to be made by this day) I still go about the same process, but if I’m not 100% confident by the deadline I don’t make the decision (as in, whatever decision is made by default or which minimizes change).
