I know I have made a wrong decision when:
1. I do not have inner peace. Something inside me tells me that what I did was either unfair to someone or has caused someone's hurt.
2. When the results of my decision begins to show.
When these signs occur I do the following:
1. Stop immediately and undo what I have done. It's never too late to have a brand new beginning.
2. Apologize or make amends. Be willing to take a loss but preserve at all cost the relationship. Money lost can be recovered but relationship lost leads to more loss.

If you put your finger to a hot stove, you pull it away instantly. it is easy to make the right decision because you are getting burned.
In life, many decisions are not easy as that. The most difficult decisions are of course, personal. Do you stay with someone or do you choose to end the relationship? A wrong decision can be hard to reverse. However, I find usually the decisions made on impulse are the ones that come back to haunt me. Such as spending the rent check on a new set of speakers. Or sleeping with someone you hooked up with in the club 3 hours before.
If it is decision that you have been agonizing over for months before and you finally act on it; then likely you made the right decision. (right for you, but maybe not right for everyone else).
Leaving a bad relationship, changing jobs, selling your house. Moving, All of these are difficult decisions. But if you weigh the good and bad points, give consideration to others on your decision, and try to predict the long term impact. Then you have made the best decision based on what you know at the time you made it.

I am not Francis Kong but I will try to answer. All of us do make wrong decisions because we are humans. We are not perfect. If I knew that I made a wrong decision, I try to correct it if possible. If not, just treasure the lesson learned from it and try not to repeat the same mistake again.

You know if you made a wrong decision, when you THINK you KNOW you have made a wrong decision.
Standards, like beauty, are in the eyes of the beholder. Two people have have made the same decision in a same scenario can have very different outlooks on the decision made, regardless of the actual result.
No one can tell you what is right/wrong except for yourself. I personally think murder is wrong, but murderers have a different morality standard and may see it justified.
I can't tell you if you have made a right or wrong decision, but I could influence you to think one way or another, leading you to make the desired conclusion.

You know in your heart whether you have made the wrong decision - you feel guilty, unsettled, it keeps going over and over in your head that you should have made the other decision, it sits in your conscious, and you feel you need to correct it
It is complicated to tell you what to do if you believe you have made the wrong decision - If you feel you must do something there are some questions i think that might help you to consider, this might be helpful in considering whether you have made the wrong decision too - like
Who does this affect?, is this right or wrong?, If someone else in your position how would they deal with it, can you live with it? and so on....

If u go deep into vision, then the struggle for existence is wrong itself. So everything in that light is wrong under the sun.
We understand when any such wrong decision give us trouble.
The only solution to this is to think, whether u can step back first of all, if not possible, then u have to cool down.
Think that...ur life isn't permanent...so the suffering of ur wrong decision won't b permanent either.

You know because you can feel it in your gut. Be responsible and then accountible for your actions, and then let it go.
Good luck.
