Understanding Decision-Making Through Cognitive Functions

In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Andrew Winkler explores the psychology behind decision-making and how personality type influences whether we act quickly or hesitate. Drawing from John Cleese’s idea of the “last responsible moment,” Dr. Andy explains how people fall into two camps: those who feel pressure to decide quickly, and those who grow anxious if forced to decide too soon.


By breaking down cognitive functions—like thinking, feeling, sensing, and intuition—Dr. Andy shows how each of us has unique strengths we either turn outward or inward. These preferences not only impact how we process decisions but also how we interact with the world. This episode brings clarity to the mechanics behind Myers-Briggs types and what it means to be a "judger" or a "perceiver" at your core.


In this episode, you will learn:

  • (00:30) – Why John Cleese’s “last responsible moment” is a powerful lens for understanding decision-making
  • (01:10) – How personality types influence whether you feel rushed or delayed when making decisions
  • (02:00) – The four core cognitive functions and how they shape how we gather and evaluate information
  • (03:10) – What it means to turn your strongest mental functions inward or outward—and how it affects your interactions
  • (04:30) – Why your dominant extroverted function determines your decision-making comfort zone
  • (05:40) – How all of this connects to the Myers-Briggs personality model—and what it means for real-life choices


Let’s connect!
