- Dr. Ellen Langer says “Rather than wasting your time being stressed over making the right decision, make the decision right”.
- But there is also another important point from elsewhere that, in life, we should not make wrong choices for very important or irreversible decisions, such as, whom to marry etc. Because, for example, the choice of spouse can significantly affect your life. Spend as much time and use as much data as possible to take high impactful decisions. For example, Naval Ravikant says Spend More Time Making the Big Decisions. If you are making a four year decision, spend a year thinking it through.
- It is very important that we don’t spend too much energy on reversible and simple choices. Timebox, be mindful of the your time.
