236. How to make hard decisions

OCT 4, 202435 MIN

Description

At some stage in our 20s we'll have to make a life changing decision where the right choice is not at all clear: stay or leave my job, the country, my relationships? We can become paralysed in that moment, unable to take a step forward, not realising that doing nothing is, in itself, a decision. In today's episode we break down: 

  • Why we struggle to make hard decisions
  • The paradox of choice 
  • Indecisiveness and a lack of self trust 
  • The 'Wisest Self' thought exercise
  • The 10/10/10 rule for making hard decisions 
  • The role of regret and fear 

Listen now if you're struggling with some hard choices in your 20s!
