Episode 16: Decision Making

We make thousands of decisions a day. Some are easy. Some are hard. And some are harder than they need to be. In this episode, Shannon and Janine talk about making decisions a little easier. Discussion topics include: • The difficult decisions brought on by modern television viewing • How having many options makes it more difficult to make decisions • Using your limited to decision-making capacity for important decisions • How perfectionism hampered Shannon’s car-buying ability • Shannon’s closet-clearing strategy (Janine thinks it's brilliant) • The coin-flipping method of decision making (it’s fun and sneaky) • Strategies for restaurant-related decisions • The secret decision-making formula: know what’s most important to you about a decision and use those parameters to narrow the options and make a choice.
