parents: Decision Making, My Systems


Problem

My decision are often too random, distorted by emotion, noise and bias.

I need a system to raise decision quality.

System

  • Identify the decision type
    • Two-way doors (easy to reverse): move fast and learn fast.
    • One-way doors (hard to reverse): slow down and think.
  • Think carefully
    • Write down the background, context, options, assumptions, risks, reasoning and results.
      • Turn vague feelings into clear words.
    • Get independent persperctives (seperate personas or AI agents) to evaluate seperately.
  • Decide
    • Summarize the evaluation and choose.
    • If possible, use a simple algorithm.
