My parents told me to listen to that little voice inside that I'd hear/feel when trying to make a decision. If it made me feel hopeful, excited etc. then it was probably the right choice to make (as long as it wasn't illegal, immoral or life threatening). If it gave me a feeling of "I don't know if I should do this... Then it was most likely not the thing to do. Often I'd ignore my inner voice and learn an unpleasant lesson.
One thing I'd tell my children, "If it's illegal, immoral or life threatening, stay away from it."
