Hello heres my miniguide for making high tier decisions
  1. Most people mess up decisions before they even start because they only consider like 1 or 2 options.
    Slow down and actually think of a few different paths. There’s almost always more than you first see.
  2. Once you have options, try to picture what happens next. Not perfectly just roughly.
    Whats likely to happen? What’s the worst case? What usually happens in situations like this?The past can help here, but don’t treat it like a rulebook.Liferepeats patterns.
  3. When youre comparing choices, dont just go “this feels good, this feels bad.”That’s how you end up picking short-term comfort over long-term progress.
    A better way to think is
    Will this matter in a week? A month? A year?
    Does this move me forward, or just feel good right now?
    Am I going to regret not doing this?
  4. Think one step further than most people do.
    Don’t just ask “what happens if I do this?”
    Ask “and then what?”
    A lot of bad decisions look good at first and fall apart later
Another thing: your brain is biased.
You’ll naturally want the easy option, the comfortable option, the one that avoids stress.
That doesn’t make it the right one.
At some point though, you just have to choose.
You’re never going to have perfect information. Sitting there overthinking forever usually makes things worse.
Pick the best option you can, commit to it, and adjust if needed.
And after it’s all done, actually look back on it.
What did you think would happen vs what actually happened?
That’s how you get better at this over time. goes back to the end of number 2
