<You'll Be 'Spoiled for Choice' with These Phrases>

Are you good at making decisions? From little things like what to eat for breakfast to big things like whether to start a new job, it can feel like every day is full of nothing but decisions, decisions, decisions!

And while we can't help make those decisions any easier, we can at least give you some phrases you can use to talk about them!

For example, imagine you're going to a movie theater with your friend, and they ask what you want to watch.

If you have a lot of movies to pick from, you can say you're "spoiled for choice." This phrase is used when you have a lot of good options to choose from.

To help you decide among so many movies, you should "weigh your options" — think about all the good points and bad points of each one before deciding which one to watch.

But if the movies are all starting soon, you might need to "make a snap decision" about what to watch. This means to make a decision quickly, without considering it too much.

If there are two movies you want to watch but you can't decide which one, you might feel like you're "torn between" them. If you're "torn between" two things, you're having a difficult time choosing between them.

But if there's one movie both you and your friend have been waiting all year to see, your choice could be a "no-brainer" — it's such an easy decision that you don't even have to use your brain to think about it!
