When a question becomes important to find the answer to, here is what works for me. 1) Prayer! The best decisions in my life where preceded with prayer. Sometimes the answer in my spirit comes quickly, and the sometimes I have to know for sure. with phase 2) Fasting, then continue till I get a second nudge in my spirit. Thus far this has resulted in decisions that work out in the end to my betterment. May not be the answer I want, but the path I need. Try it, maybe it will work for you as well.
