A quote I like: “You cannot make progress without making decisions.” - Jim Rohn
I’ve been thinking a lot about how to improve everyday decisions lately. And making decisions is hard when you don’t know which ones are important.
I’ve been involved in many businesses, and many of them failed. What I’ve learned is that the more decisions I make, the less quality they tend to have.
Instead, what I should have done is make fewer decisions, but higher-quality ones.
To do that, I’ve come to realize that instead of just making decisions, I need to improve my thinking. The better I can think, the better I can see which decision is right for me.
How do I improve my thinking?
Well, journaling works, writing works, reading helps the most, and above all, asking questions and being curious.
These are habits of learning—and the more you learn, the more you equip yourself with mental tools to make better decisions.
