Show Notes:
- Richard’s message is to stop saying the word “Whatever” because you come across as a slacker. You also are not making a decision and every decision matters even the small ones.
- When you are faced with a decision – make it.
- Research shows that the decision you would make in the first few minutes is usually also the decision you would make 2 weeks later so go ahead and make the decision instead of delaying.
- Gut decisions are okay as long as you a very familiar with a topic. You can also use pros and cons or an algorithm such as if this then that.
- Do not let your emotions be a part of your decision-making. Be self-aware of your feelings.
- You need to clarify your intentions. If you have the clarification it makes your decisions easier.
- Sometimes, it can be very efficient to make the same decision.
- Richard’s book is Never Say Whatever: How Small Decisions Make a Big Difference
