"How Can I Make Better Decisions?"

Ever grow tired of having to make so many choices? Ever waste time poring over a past decision, as if you could redo it? While a few rare leaders relish the chance to decide anything & everything, most of us resent having to pick between options all day long. Decision-making can feel like murder...because it actually is. "Deciding" is literally the act of killing off options, and most of us don't like committing murder. But really good decision-makers find a way to commit and keep options open at the same time...and report much less stress along the way. Tune in this week to hear Hal Runkel teach you how you can progress in your everyday decision-making practice. Watch Hal livestream here!
