Why is choosing so difficult?

How do you choose? Do you make a list of pros and cons? Do others influence your decision? Do you follow your gut feeling? Or do you choose whatever comes up? Or do you take no decision at all?

In this training you will learn more about why choosing can be difficult and why this causes anxiety, worry and/or procrastination. A little sneak preview; there is a very logical biological reason!

You will explore where your decision anxiety comes from. You learn which mechanisms often cause feelings of stress or anxiety. These insights, together with some hands-on tips, will help you with future decisions you will face.

About the trainer

"Helping students thrive, is my main goal in my work at Wageningen University & Research. I have learned through experience that students who are “stuck” can come a long way with just some (new) insights, practice and reflection. This is what I incorporate in my work as a study advisor at the Biology programme and as a study skills trainer."
