Got a tricky decision to make? Try this…

There have been times when I’ve got a tricky decision to make and I either go back and forth on the decision for ages or make a knee-jerk choice.
It’s looking back at those moments that I wish I’d done this:
- Pause
- Take a breath – in through the nose
- Take another breath – longer and deeper than the last
- And asked myself, “In a years time will this even matter?”
- Followed by “What will I regret more, doing it or not doing it?”
It’s the times when I do this I find the a better answer bubbles to the surface.
