How do I decide?
Free will.
Why are you all trying to make it so much more than it is?

Here is one of many over-simplified examples of how we don't have complete free will:
Brain Games - You Decide (S02E02) - VĂdeo Dailymotion - This is an awesome show you should check out some of the other episodes if you find the time.
I get what you're saying but there is also a lot of brain functions we have ZERO control over that go into making us decide things that limit the sort of absolute free will you're trying to explain.
