E04: Say goodbye to overthinking
Manage episode 278609551 series 2821914
Overthinking happens when we fear failure and try to control outcomes. From decisions big or small, we’d benefit from having a bias for action. We can actually train ourselves to make easier, faster decisions to develop better habits and end overthinking. We’ll discuss this, along with tools to make big decisions seem manageable. This is the first in a series of "Lessons from a corporate life," where I dive into values I learned from years at stressful jobs that can help in any situation.
In this episode:
Why we overthink
How failure is fact finding
How our gut is sometimes right
What a bias for action is and how to use it
How to form better decision-making habits
Reversible, low impact decisions
Turn overwhelming decisions into manageable ones
