I allow my penis to decide.

Holy crap that's hilarious. You're penis has decision making skills when it comes to big decisions does it ;)

Now to contribute to the thread... I usually do what has already been said a million times. I weight the pros and cons but that doesn't help you here.

I'd say just do what you think you'll have the most fun doing, what you think you'll have the greatest success in.

I wish you luck hun.

Usually ideas form over a long period of time and there´s no more need for a decission.

eeny...meeny....miney....Mo.

Then I do the opposite of mo. It's worked fairly well, with a few notable exceptions.

It depends on the situation for me. A lot of times, it just boils down to a leap of faith. In your situation, it's going to be what's most beneficial for you.

I posted this same topic at SB to see how their answers differed from the ones I'd receive from here. Alarmingly, this quote reflects many of their answers (although all of their penis-posts referred back to the decision-making wisdom of Es's penis, not Mike's). :D

I've never decided anything really major in my life. I actually don't know where to begin to do so.

Some of my decisions involved a spontaneous 'jump in the deep end, sink or swim' attitude. This has been met with... mixed success.

I wish I could advise you more Z. But... I can't. :(

I think I'll try this the next time I have to make a major decision. I don't think it would actually help me to make better decisions, but it sounds like fun. :D
After all, this is completely straightforward. What could possibly go wrong?

THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR EMERGENCY PANTS!

My penis has superior decision-making capabilities. It led me to Rebecca, after all.

Given that the penis, when fully erect, is positioned perpendicularly to the rest of the body, it always points in the "right" direction. :D

Only after leading you to your hand for the better part of 2 decades. :P

I'm quite the opposite, i often leap in and make a decision based on gut feeling, unfortunatelly i think i subconsiously hate myself and i frequenly make really bad decissions, particularily in relationships and job decissions.

Well that's different...guys bragging about penis intelligence instead of penis size...

For decisions, well, follow my dreams, follow my heart. I think that deep inside I just know what I want and where I'm going.
