Description
Most of us get stuck in either/or thinking way more than we realize. Should I take the job or not? Buy the house or not? Marry the girl or not? And when you reduce a big decision down to yes or no, it gets heavy fast — because now there's only two outcomes and one of them feels like loss. In this episode I walk through a handful of ways to break out of that trap. One of these is what I call a "root cause rethink," where you go back and ask why you actually want the thing in the first place (the answer might surprise you). There are almost always more than two choices. And if someone is pressuring you to decide right now between two options, that should be a red flag, not a motivator.
