Trying to juggle my critical thinking muscle by taking a deliberate and organized approach to the storm in my head. Results may vary.
Seven important things happened this year so far:
I changed jobs.
I started a newsletter.
I started a podcast.
I saw Seth Godin speak live.
I built new, meaningful friendships.
I quit my (new) job.
I started freelancing.*
*Actually, not yet, but I will in 2 weeks and a half.…
There is one thing that every guest I’ve invited to the podcast has told me:
I’m not an expert on decision-making.
That’s because no one is. There are just too many variables for anyone to ever make perfect decisions all the time.…
