10 Things to Do When You’re Really Confused


  1. Stay calm. 

  2. Be true to yourself and keep your original goal in mind.

  3. Think of three different ways to approach the situation and see if any of them are helpful.  

  4. Imagine what a person actually or theoretically would do in this situation.

  5. Watch carefully while others deal with the same problem and learn from them. (This is not cheating but a sign of being smart to learn from others.)

  6. Find out what experts in the field are recommending. 

  7. Ask a person who can give some general advice or make you think differently. 

  8. Seek advice from different sources including Web.

  9. Give a break to revisit the matter at another time.

  10. Ask yourself whether to continue gathering knowledge: Sometimes it makes more sense to reflect on what you have learned to find options.
