Which car? Which school? Which house? Which job? So, you’re faced with a tough decision. What’s it gonna be? Too many choices? Can’t narrow them down? Feeling the PRESSURE?! Calm down, it’s going to be okay. We’re here for you. Actually, making tough decisions doesn’t have to be hard. All you need is to be a little organized and thoughtful about it. Step 1: Take a deep breath, close your eyes and be in your happy place. Step 2: Snap out of it! There are decisions to be made, get out of that happy place! Step 3: Install Picky Picky and create your first "Tradeoff". Step 4: Enter each option you are choosing between. Step 5: Enter the importance of the different “Traits” of those options Step 6: Rate each option's Traits. Step 7: Congratulate yourself! In as little as five minutes you completed your first Tradeoff and the best choice is right there in front of you! Picky Picky helps you make completely objective choices. This ain’t no random generator or spinner app with no thought put it into, this is MATH, baby! Remember that thing you said you’d never need in high school? Well, guess what – YOU DON’T NEED IT, because we did it for you. Picky Picky does not share any of your information or data, so if you’re faced with an embarrassing decision, like, say, which Riverdale character to dress up as for Halloween, no one needs to know (but it totally should be Jughead).
