Unless it is absolutely unavoidable do not make a decision if someone is pressuring you with a deadline or scarcity. Scarcity and time pressure schemes are two of the most effective, and dangerous, methods that are used to try and force us into making decisions.

In order to make a wise decision ask yourself, “Would I make this decision now if there was neither the scarcity or limited time pressure?” If the answer is “no,” then do not fall prey to these tactics.
