When life puts a man to have to take a really hard decision, many of us can spend hours agonizing to think about how the right thing to do. The experimental results of Portuguese scientists say that perhaps this is not the best way. Much more effective than just trusting intuition and make a decision quickly at the same time saving time and mental strength.
