Maximizer vs Satisficer Quiz
 Do you push yourself to make the best possible choice, like a maximizer, or are you a satisficer?

Do you bide for time to make the best possible choice, or do you tend to have a clear idea in mind of your needs and make a brisk decision based on those needs? As we explored in Maximizers vs Satisficers: Who Makes Better Decisions?, your decision-making style when faced with a problem will likely fit into one of two categories: maximizer or satisficer.
