Why You Should Make Lots Of Decisions Quickly.

Paralysis by analysis.

Paralysis by analysis is a tragic illness to suffer from, especially when doing business. You can spend too much time weighing up the pros and cons of making a certain decision that you end up making no decision at all.

Remember, the old saying, “More has been lost to indecision, than wrong decision.” It’s true. When you’re on your lifestyle design journey, you’re going to have to make a lot more decisions than you would if you’re a working bee in some company hive.

You have to take responsibility for your decisions.

When you’re an ordinary employee in an organization, your manager and supervisors will make most decisions for you, alleviating you of most responsibility. However, when you’re striking out on your own to claim freedom, independence, success and wealth, you’ll need to make decisions, which you’re solely responsible for. In general, there are two main types of decisions- right and wrong. It’s the wrong decisions you probably fear. If you do, you’re not alone.

You’re only born with two fears.

Did you know that every human being is born with only two natural fears? Success guru, Brian Tracy in his audio-book, “The Psychology of Achievement” tells us that all human babies possess only a fear of falling and a fear of loud noises. That’s it. ALL other fears are learned growing up, mostly from our parents, and secondly at school. If you learn to fear, then you can learn to conquer fear.

When you make lots of decisions quickly, you’re likely to make wrong decisions often. That’s okay. You’re also going to find out what works sooner as well.
I’m not saying you should be rash and not use your brain. Of course you should think through your decisions. Also, the more money at stake on a decision, the more advice you may need from successful or professional people before deciding. An example of a decision that would need you to think carefully before making is to whether to quit your job or not to start your own business.

Listen to your gut feeling.

Your gut feeling is a powerful driving force. You can often feel what is right and wrong without needing to analyze too much. Don’t be scared to go with your gut feeling. I’ve found that about 95% of the time I’ve listened to my gut feeling, it was correct. The only times I can think of where my gut feeling has ever been wrong, has been in regard to women. But that’s another story.

Wrong decisions can be made right.

If you know what you want to achieve, then start pumping out the decisions to move in that direction. You’ll find that you’ll make plenty of wrong decisions in the process. That’s okay, because by learning how they were wrong, you’ll be able to work on correcting them to keep you moving forward towards your goals. You’ll also be gaining valuable insights and experience as a faster pace than most people. As time goes by, you’ll find your decision making ability improves. By making lots of decisions, you’ll also make some good decisions and even a few brilliant ones that bring you the most money and success.

Conclusion.

Don’t wait until circumstances and timing are just right to make a business decision because they probably never will be. Once you form the habit of making lots of decisions quickly, you’ll gain massive momentum moving towards more money and more success.
