Making a Decision

How To Play

Hold a decision in mind. Run it both ways.

For each card, choose the colour it would be if you say Yes - then do the same for No.

Compare the two. The path with more Green is often the better one, but sometimes it's about tweaking the details or negotiating new T's and C's to push Red and Orange CARDS up into Green for the option you prefer.
