Make decisions that are aligned with your values

Make a list of all the causes you believe in
Some examples include environmental issues, animal cruelty, sexism, etc. You can keep adding to this list as you think of new things - and they can even be as small and specific as keeping your home clean. 

Use this list to create a list of your values
Think carefully about why you believe what you believe in. For example, if you believe in saving the environment for the future generation, you could add altruism to your list of values. Other potential values include patience, kindness, diligence, etc. 

When making a difficult decision, choose the one that fits your values
Essentially, ask yourself, “Which decision will be in line with my beliefs?”
