People are terrible at deciphering cause and effect or even correlation for causation right. And that happens and then you have to be honest with yourself saying hey how would you want to make decisions based on what the best ideas or getting your way? That's why systems thinking is a good practice because it just forces you to recognize when you make mistakes.
This episode is packed with wisdom from previous guests on the art of making better decisions.
We discuss the three types of decision-makers, how to control your emotions when making decisions, why it’s crucial to look at every decision differently, the processes for coming to the right decision, and how to learn from your mistakes when you get it wrong.
