Learn five basic steps to good decision making.  Understand how to weigh one's priorities: evaluate if the information for making the decision is credible; consider who will be affected by the decision; factor in how the decision affects one's present, and future; examine when and where the decision will take effect; and know the reason and purpose of your decision.  Learn how to create a list of pros and cons and arrive at an informed decision without being influenced by heightened emotions or impulse.  In the end, you will feel more in control and trust your own decision-making ability and be okay with the occasional bad decision, knowing that you fully considered all your options.
