Episode notes

Just because something's a problem doesn't mean you can do something about it. One of the things we found, for instance, when we worked with bangladash in the bangladashe government, was that if you make essentially an e ba out of this, so you put the bids up on line, it makes it harder to be corruptin there. We did a study of about four % of the spending of bangledash and tan transferred it into a procurement basically, so that you could procure it in the most effective way. This is not the only thing we should be looking at. Some things we actually have pretty poor data on, and maybe we should still be focusing on

Do you ever feel like you have so many important things to do that it’s impossible to prioritize them?

Even knowing where to start can be challenging.

In this week’s episode, I talk with prioritization expert Dr. Bjorn Lomborg. Through his think tank, The Copenhagen Consensus, Dr. Lomborg has prioritized the most significant challenges facing the world today.

In this episode, you will learn three principles that will help you prioritize what's most important in your life and discover specific strategies you can use to make decision-making easier.
