decision makingMen are supposed to be natural born leaders. They are supposed to voluntarily run into the throes of danger, protect all those who they hold dear, and, most of all, make sound decisions on a consistent basis whenever a challenge or dilemma presents itself.

But if this is what men are supposed to do naturally, why do so many men find it so hard to be good decision-makers? Shouldn’t it just come to them like second nature? Although some people may believe that decision making for a man is easy, all men know that it can be hard to make a decision – not because of the act itself – but more because we fear bringing about a negative outcome or not making the best decision we can in a given situation.

Most of the time when you ask people for advice on decision-making they just say things like: “Just do it!” But this isn’t really advice. Nor is it really useful unless you’re already decisive.

So how can we make ourselves more effective decision makers? That’s what I’m going to talk about today. I’m going to outline some important mindsets and techniques in order to make you stronger and more confident in your decisions and, more importantly, your decision process.

Hey Colt, this point you made is rather arguable:

"
Making big life changes. This may seem a little strange, but I believe you should make big life-changing decisions based on emotion. And by big life-changing decisions I mean: moving to a new country, deciding to propose to (or even go steady with) a girl, taking a new job (even if it “seems” like your dream job on paper), and any other type of decision that would drastically change your life.
"
If one's coach or mentor required their help in something, many times the emotion fluctuates and then you do what he asked and you benefit from it(assuming he was a good coach ), and even if you feel uneasy with the result of your decision to follow the guidance of your coach, you are glad it didn't blow up in your face as aa wrong decision. Many times after such, one could rely on life changing decisions being left to instinct regardless of emotional state.

Just a thought!

Thanks

Hey Colt

What you said about not using instincts for money interests me. In his book, Robet Herjavec states that you should rely on both instincts and knowledge when regarding invesments, and uses teh example of Rick George, former CEO of Suncor Energy, who made a decision to invest 3 billion dollars (far more than the capitalized value of the company at the time) on an expansion project when all the data said it was suicide, and he was openly scoffed at due to his decision. Because of it, Suncor was worth over 70 billion dollars by the time he retired. I'm just wondering , what are your thought on this?

Good ideas, but wanted to discuss this one:

Usually we can draw parallels between seduction and business.
Some businesses succeed even when everyone around you would say "this idea is crazy, you won't get anywhere". It seems that majority of successes come like that, where people accumulate experience by starting when it seems hopeless and then they succeed.
But still it's numbers game and someone who doesn't play safe takes more risks and more of them are about to become successful, so maybe it's more exception then the rule and you should still tie business to logic until you get enough money to experiment and place them like bets.

So if money + major life desicions (logic+heart) we get the situation I described: until you can't don't go with emotions that far and when you can - experiment as much as you can.

Should you just wait for a girl to text me for xmas?

It's a female friend/acquaintaince. We're not bros, so there is some sexual tension attraction there. I unfortunately made this error:

Me: Halloween wishes
Something about her eating something sweet (Was too nervous to ask her what she was wearing as I was doin nothing that night plus time difference if she was out partying and not in the mood to text)
Her: halloween wishes
Yes I'm eating lots of sweets

At thsi point, should have stopped, but went and asked her was she at a halloween banquet and sounds fun.

How to recover or just wait for her to text me to remain mysterious, less available and busy?
