Balancing Trade-offs in Decision Making
Every choice involves a trade-off against something else, whether it's money, time, focus, or energy. Understanding what matters most and making choices that reflect those priorities are crucial decisions that need to be continuously practiced. This concept extends to critical conversations about money, like salary negotiations, buying a home, or managing household spending.
Confidence and Competence in Communication
