Research has shown that humans are surprisingly bad at picking the most logical choices.
This will help you find the most rational decision you need by predicting which option you should choose.

iDecide will ask you to questions like how much it's worth for you and how much it hurts if you fail. Then it computes what is expected to give the most happiness.

The program uses the Expected-utility theory (Baron, 1994) to compute which choices are expected to give you most utility. If you always use this method to make your choices you'll be statistically happiest. In order for it to work you must have different options or goals that you can estimate how easy they are to accomplish, how much happiness they'll give you and how much it hurts if you fail. This program will do the rest for you.
