We can perceive today as a stressful time and may feel challenged to be making good decisions.
What you need to recognize is that you can make the best possible decisions and still have an undesired outcome.
Let’s say you have to make an important decision.
There’s a 75% chance you’ll have the desired outcome.
There’s also a 24% chance that you’ll have an undesired outcome (there are many possibilities of undesired considering there may be only one desired outcome).
You take in as much information as you can. You filter it through several models to determine the best possible decision you can make.
If you get what you intended, you made a good decision.
If you get what you did not intend, you made a bad decision.
Right?
Wrong.
Even though the probability of the undesired outcome was much less than the desired outcome, there was still a 24% chance that you would not get what you wanted.
Here’s what I want you to realize…
This situation exists in EVERY decision you make even when you may not recognize it.
This is why it’s so important to reframe failure or bad outcomes. There are influences that you cannot control that determine what happens after we make a decision and take action.
Spending time beating yourself up over a decision is time (insert “life”) wasted.
The best course of action is to make the next decision based on the new information (aka the outcome from the last decision).

Zero self-judgment. Zero time wasted. Next!
