You know, I can think of decisions I've made, and I'm sure other people have this experience, that at the time you're making the decision, you think, like, this is it.

Like, there's no going back.

But so many of the decisions that we make, we can undo them later if they didn't turn out right.

Right?

Oh, I would say, you know, wish I'd done that earlier.

Well, as I listen to you talk, I can think of several decisions, many decisions that I've made in my life that seemed really so important at the time but have had no lasting effect on my life or my happiness or anything.

And I think that's so important to keep in mind that so many of the decisions that we make, that we agonize over, just don't really matter that much.

I've been speaking with Annie Duke.

She is a speaker and consultant on the topic of decision-making.

She's a former professional poker player and author of the book, How to Decide, Simple Tools for Making Better Choices.

And there's a link to her book at Amazon in the show notes.

Thanks, Annie.
