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

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! :)

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. 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

Your quote "clarity comes from action" has been on my bedroom wall for the past year or so. It really helped me launch my KZread 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.

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 :)

The missy Elliott quote ! Yesssssss! Hahahaha marie forleo you are a genuis!

Ra ta ta ta ta, ta ta ta ta ta ta.. Hahaha love this one..

What is the worst than can happen is a tool that I am going to use for sure.

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!!

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🙂

Thank you Marie. What fantastic and clear advice!

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.

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!

Thank you so much Marie!! Always useful and uplifting!

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 love the silliness. The practices a extremely helpful. specifically the last one for me. I tend overthink before I even do anything. Specifically focusing on worse case scenarios.

Thank you Marie! You just helped me make a huge decision, and I feel great about it. Thank you thank you thank you xxx

Thank you SO MUCH for this video Marie, I watched it last year and it helped me a lot then. Now I found it again as I'm going through a difficult decision regarding my career and it helped even more! The first 3 "tests" you recommended clearly pointed me in the direction of saying "YES" to this very scary decision I've been contemplating. I realized it is DEFINITELY worth it to at least "work it" (in a low-risk way) with this decision in several ways and see how it feels to actually LIVE IT. And after using the tests in the video, I now have a clear step-by-step "work-it plan" that I'm going to follow! That feels so much better than having all of that in my head for months!! I swear I'm going to hang your phrase on a wall in my apartment "Clarity comes from engagement, not thought". I should remember that more often!

This is incredibly useful information and I so appreciate it!!! Marie- you are amazing!!!

loooved it! Just the perfect combination of comedy and inspiration

You're an amazing woman...Thank you for the good advice 😊 Bless you

This is by far the best episode !! thanks a lot ♥

Yaaaasss! Work that Missy reference! Great tips, Marie. Keep doing your thing....because we need your special gift.

Amazing video, loved it! I'm always so impressed with how well you blend silly with professional.

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!

Thank you Marie! ❤️

This lady is sooooo... everything!

LOVED THIS EPISODE!!!! :D Thank you Marie and Team Forleo!

Thank you! This was really helpful!

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

this was a really great video and solid advice, thank you!

Still relevant, 6 years on. Thanks Marie and Team Forleo!

Been racking my head about leaving NYC. Will try this and test my potential new town! Brilliant

First test and I already hit the like button! This is very helpful, thank you! 😊

Marie, you are such a special soul. I love you and your energy, creativity and plain awesomeness!!! Thanks for everything you do for the world, we certainly need the special giftS that you have! ;-)

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😆💕

Clarity comes from engagement not thought. Got it!

love this, thank you

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...!!!!

Thanks Marie!

This is "bookend the future", the best and worst scenario. Also, "ooching", from the book, Decisive. Great sharing!

Great video Marie, thank you 🙂💙

Thank you!

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

Amazing insight as usual!

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.

Thank you for this

Thankx so much Gr8 tips 👌

Thanks Marie. Bless you from india...you have made things easy for me

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." =)

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 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

Holy....snap....this LITERALLY is going to change my life starting NOW

Very, VERY USEFUL advice! Thank you, Marie!

spot on!

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.

I love your videos 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!

Lol this is the best!! I love the Missy Elliot bit!! Fantastic content! Thanks so much!

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

Very well put!!!! Thank You!!!! 😊 💗💗💗 your body doesn't lie!!!😉😉😉

She is full of wisdom.

Awesome. Heart based decision vs mind or logic based decision

great video, thank you

i love this girl!

what a GREAT video!

I'm so glad I decided to finish this video all the way through this time LOL

Helpful and entertaining.

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 .

Omg I love you even more!!! Love missy Elliott!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Oh Marie, you make me laugh. Thanks for the advice

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.

Nice one =). Am thinking of quitting my Job by May but am afraid my business would not be matured enough by then. This video helped thanks once again

love you Marie

Hahahaha you are amazing, thank you so mich💞

💯perfect

This is great! :)

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.

These rock!

I'm currently working with a brother where i manage everything but, now i have improved to a certain limit in life. Now, i want to enter into a new field he has no idea about, actually, i want to quit to work in a different field. I'm actually confused whether to move on or stay since its also a family business. i wish i would hear from you

The gals got some "moooves" Missy Elliot styley! Amusing I did enjoy that. Was sceptical at first, but yep like to think this might help.

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

Worst and best case scenario are completely subjective. There are known unknowns and unknown unknowns we cannot know of. #1 makes sense and can be deeply intuitive/spiritual. Although I believe the BODY itself is nothing without the mind itself.

God i Love this woman. She is so funny and wise and genuine

Love this episode! :-) *virtual_hugs*

lmaooooo u killed it.i loved it.great job .u gave great advice & made me laugh..

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!

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’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.
