Make Good Choices

One filter I use for making decisions: How much can I influence the outcome after the initial choice is made?

When I can do a lot to influence the outcome, I’m less worried about risk. Even if the choice appears risky on the surface, I can likely create a good outcome with effort.

When I can’t do much to influence the outcome, I’m more risk averse. Even my best effort won’t move the needle. Your ability to influence the outcome after a decision is made is a crucial thing to consider.”

Martial artist and actor Bruce Lee on pushing yourself:
