Everyone makes important decisions, some of these decisions are bigger than others, but all of these can potentially have a big impact. It can be about buying a house, starting a family or something relatively smaller
such
 as buying the new iPhone. Everyone deals with making significant decisions differently, they ask friends or family for advice or they ask their partner, while other people make these decisions on their own. For me

. The more significant the
decision
, the bigger the chance I would ask advice to friends and family. If the
decision
 is of lesser importance than the chances are bigger that I would make the

 on my own.
For example

 as possible from different family members and friends. But sometimes the significance of a
decision
 is so big, but
also
 so personal, that I would still decide to make the
decision
 without asking for guidance. For me, personal choices

 like an abortion, will be decided by myself without the guidance or directions from other people. As

Hence

decision
 are leading factors to decide to ask for advice or not.
