Every single day there are decisions to be made. Whether you are a doctor, lawyer, sorbetero, maid, garbage collector, or a businessman. Even if you’re the richest man in town or a plain housewife, every single minute of our lives, we make decisions.
What time shall I wake up tomorrow? What shall I wear? What would be our breakfast? Do I want scrambled eggs, boiled, or sunny-side-up? Butter or olive oil? Wheat bread, oats, snow bread? Shall I watch CNN or BBC Earth? Where do we eat? Where do we pass to avoid heavy traffic?
We shop, we decide. We eat, we choose. In the shower, we choose what shampoo, conditioner, body wash, soap?
In running a business, the decision-making process must be faster than when you’re just choosing the brand of shampoo in the grocery. It must be made in a good amount of time without sacrificing the results.
In life’s event, things may be simplified by being decisive. Simple things can become complicated if decisions cannot be made on time. Getting a consensus is good but it’s not applicable at all times. If decisions cannot be made on time then things are at a standstill, nothing is achieved, and it could compound.
A checklist of things to do is helpful. You can check or cross out each item one by one as they come and as they go. Done. Check. Done. Check.
