Decisions. Decisions. Decisions.

Decisions. Decisions. Decisions.

Nearly every hour of our professional life is filled with things we must decide. We let things go because we’re indecisive. It feels sometimes like we’re suffocating in things we must decide. As long our to-do list might be, we may also have a list of things that need a simple decision. If you’re like me, I can’t even decide what to keep in my to-do pile or if I should let it go and throw it out, I have hundreds of things I’ve saved, “just in case,” that I haven’t used in 20 years. So we postpone it to “later.” And we let the stacks, the lists, the piles, the decision get bigger.

Let’s make a pack today to touch everything once. Do it just one day. Postpone nothing that you encounter for just one day. Decide what we’re gonna keep and what we’re getting rid of. Even one day could give us the momentum to do it again because it’ll feel so good and accomplished. So what are you going to toss out? What will you finally decide? Which pile or email are you going to delete or clean up once and for all?
