I spend a lot time thinking of alternate ways to approach life.
I re-consider my hierarchy of values.
When values change, the plan of action needs to change, too.
For example, if I decide that personal growth is top priority, then I plan a life pushing outside my comfort zone. But if I decide that creative output is top priority, then I plan a tranquil life without obstacles, so I can just create.
But the only way to decide to not be Buridans donkey is to go give it a try.
Theres a huge difference between in-theory versus in-practice. If youve been deliberating on something for a while, get it out of your head, and into the world.
If it turns out to be a mistake, thats fine. At least youll know its a mistake in fact, instead of just in theory.
