This can be daunting, but it's important to remember that you're not alone. Everyone has to make decisions with limited information at some point. The key is to learn how to do it effectively.

Here are a few tips for making smarter decisions when you don't have all the facts:

1. Start by gathering as much information as you can. This may involve ng research, talking to experts, or simply brainstorming with your team. The more information you have, the better equipped you'll be to make a good decision.
2. Identify your goals and priorities. What are you trying to achieve with this decision? What are your most important criteria? Once you know what you're aiming for, you can start to evaluate your options.
3. Consider the pros and cons of each option. What are the potential benefits and risks of each choice? How likely is each outcome? Weigh the pros and cons carefully before making a decision.
4. Be open to changing your mind. As you gather more information, you may find that your initial assumptions were wrong. Don't be afraid to adjust your course if necessary.
5. Trust your gut. Sometimes, the best decision is the one that feels right. If you've done your research and considered the pros and cons, go with your instincts.

Making decisions with incomplete information is never easy, but it's a skill that can be learned. By following these tips, you can make smarter decisions that will help you achieve your goals.
