People who make decisions based on emotion and justify those decisions with logic afterwards are poor decision makers. Decision making is a complex task and it has been a long debate and lot of research is being made for decisions made by logic and emotions.Many people will argue either way on the claim,I think that the decisions should be made using some logic and facts. It is not a secret that people sometimes behave, act, and react based on their current emotional stage but the truth is that allowing our emotions to take part during our decision-making processes especially when making important and/or crucial decisions is one of the biggest mistake we could ever make. There are many people who have made a decision in the “heat of the moment” just to later realize that it was a bad decision and that you should have thought about the consequences before making the decision? When we're angry, frustrated or tired, we know it's not a good time to make decisions. We've all heard the advice to "sleep on it" before making a decision. When you're on a high because of some achievement or recognition, it's easy to get swept away and believe that you're invincible. It's important to let the feelings of euphoria subside and then move forward. During the Roman Empire when a conquering general was escorted into the city in his chariot, he would be surrounded by cheering and adoring masses. Crouched in the bottom of the chariot, we're told, was a slave whose job it was to remind the hero that his moment of adulation and glory would pass. Likewise, we need to remind ourselves that our moment in the sun is fleeting. When considering a popular consumer question,is the iPhone or the Android better for one? There are more than 97 million results on Google for that question, with lots of data points to consider. Which platform has the most advanced multitasking capacity? Which has better applications? You likely have a list of logical reasons in your head why one or the other is the best choice. The fundamental question is whether consumers make their choices based on logical comparisons of performance, or are they emotional creatures who gravitate to products that appeal to their senses, feelings or moods? One may be disappointed to know two researchers at The University of Texas at Austin suspect those rational reasons may have little to do with one's decision. In one phase of their study,the researchers showed participants two photos. One was a nice looking, plump chicken. The other was a chicken that looked thin and sickly. Participants were told that the plump chicken was a natural chicken, and the thin chicken was genetically engineered. The researchers informed half of the participants that natural chickens were healthy but less tasty, and genetically engineered chickens were tasty, but less healthy. The other half were told the opposite. Overwhelmingly, sets of participants expressed a preference for the nice plump chicken, but their justifications were different. The first group claimed it was because they valued health above taste, and the second group said it was because taste was more important. Neither group seemed to justify their choice based on how they felt about the chicken's looks. They felt compelled to justify their emotional choices with non-emotional reasons, to the point that the two groups found completely opposite ways to justify the same decision. It is found in every aspect of our life, whenever we made decisions. We are ruled by our emotions first, and then we build justifications for our response. You can see this happening in hiring decisions, dating, you name it. In our society it is generally not considered justifiable to make a decision purely on an emotional response.We want to be considered scientific and rational, so we come up with reasons after the fact to justify our choice. This process seems to be happening somewhat unconsciously, people are not really aware they're coming up with these justifications. What is even more interesting is that people who claim that emotions are not that important, who consider themselves to be really rational, are actually more prone to fall into this trap. People who understand their own feelings and emotions and don’t let them sabotage the way they make decisions can have a better chance in managing situations more effectively and proactively. It also helps them not only in making better and more successful decisions but also in learning how to take control of their lives by becoming emotionally intelligent individuals.
