Answer: acting impulsively

Step-by-step explanation:

Impulsiveness is one of the main reasons for poor decisions being made. When making a decision is recommendable to first gather information to evaluate alternatives, weight the information, make a choice and finally evaluate the results.

Poor decisions are caused by not considering the consequences, a lack of understanding about the factors implicated, an extreme influence of personal emotions, or making decisions impulsively.
