Creating a Decision Journal
value—a decision-making journal. Whenever you make an important decision, take a moment to write down what you decided, how you came to that decision, and what you expect to happen. If you have the time and the inclination, you can also note how you feel physically and mentally.
Michael J. Mauboussin • Think Twice: Harnessing the Power of Counterintuition
If you’re stuck in a big decision, see what it’s like to ask yourself these three questions:
- What are you scared will happen if you don’t make the “right decision?
- What is the emotion that you’re trying to avoid?
- If you’re looking back at this moment 10 years from now, what would you be proud you decided to do?
