I'm trying to figure out whether to move out of my sharehouse or not and got 5/5 that I should! Thanks for sharing this method. It really helps to put it into perspective when you consider the important things in life. I'm not religious so the Faith category didn't strictly apply to me, but I just took as whether it fit in with my general moral values instead.

I am faced with a huge decision to make and this guidance has really helped me. You are right that a pros and cons list allows emotions to get in the way. From now on, I will always use the 5 F's when making life changing decisions. Thanks :-) Thank you so much for posting this!

I've been considering moving for a while and my mum stopped by this evening in tears because I'll be moving further away from her and my dad... I started having doubts about my decision and went online to google to get some guidance on this decision and making sure it was the right one. The five F's are fabulous. I hit a solid 4/5 and I from there I'm going to trust that universe I"m going where I need to be. Thank you so much. Deb Thank you so much for this great story and informative write up!
