Making Hard Decisions

Uncategorized May 27, 2022

This episode is all about making hard decisions and really getting to the bottom of why these decisions are so hard to make.

How do you react when you have a decision to make?

Do you voraciously search for data and info to try to create the feeling of knowing that you can make the “right decision”?

Do you ask everyone and their aunt’s sister’s cousin for advice, even though these people can’t possibly make the decision for you?

Do you numb out and avoid making the decision altogether?

If so, what can we do about it?

Here are my top suggestions:

It's not about the data or evidence or anything else outside of yourself. It's all about how you want to think and feel about it.
It ultimately comes down to what you think you’re up for
Don’t expect to feel good or comfortable about making the decision. These situations often come with a tremendous amount of discomfort.
