How many decisions do you think you make in an average day? Probably quite a few, right? While some of those choices may not be life altering, many of the tough calls to make in life require so much thought that if you’re like me you may ponder a choice for so long and still draw a blank when it comes time to decide. I’m constantly afraid to make the wrong choice and gaining a fresh perspective is critical for me to be able to take action.
I just finished reading 10-10-10 by Suzy Welch. The basic premise of the book is, “What will the consequences of my options be in 10 minutes, 10 months, and 10 years?” I had to admit that when I thought of certain decisions I had to make in the context of 10-10-10, so many things I thought were life-altering really weren’t and the more pressing issues didn’t seem so overwhelming.
I enjoyed this book because the pshychology of how people arrive at the choices they make fascinates me, but even moreso because 10-10-10 is not some secret formula that only works for a few people. Literally anyone from any walk of life can take this formula to heart and use it as a tool to help navigate them through life’s choices.
This sounds like a really neat read! Thanks for sharing, Mandy!
