Use Timed Decision-Making Tiers

  • Set strict time limits for decisions based on their importance: 5-10 minutes for small, 24 hours for medium, and 3-7 days for big decisions.
  • This prevents overthinking and saves mental energy for what truly matters.
ADVICE

Know Your Decision Style

  • Identify if you make decisions based on data, intuition, or a mix and use that style to trust your choices.
  • Avoid seeking external validation; focus on what makes you comfortable to boost decision confidence.
ADVICE

Build Confidence with Small Decisions
