Better decissions

MAKING BETTER DECISSIONS 🤔

You should have to find a way to think about the rational long-term consequences instead of being absorbed by short-term emotions.

✍️The 10–10–10 RULE will help you do that…

It’s as simple as effective. When you face a difficult decision, you split it into three parts. You ask yourself:

HOW WILL I FEEL ABOUT THIS IN TEN MINUTES, TEN MONTHS, AND TEN YEARS FROM NOW⁉️

1️⃣0️⃣ MIN: Your EMOTIONS will still determine how you feel about it in ten minutes. It’s a good point of reference and way to gauge how you feel about the situation RIGHT NOW.

1️⃣0️⃣ MONTHS: Your BEHAVIOR is likely to have a big, albeit different impact on how you feel. Your short-term emotions are gone, and the MID-TO LONG-TERM impacts of your choice have manifested themselves in your life.

1️⃣0️⃣YEARS: Your choice will either be completely irrelevant or potentially life-altering, with very little in between. It’s a good way to gauge the LONG-TERM significance of a choice before you spend weeks racking your brain about it.

What’s special about these three timeframes is they let you assess your decision from three different viewpoints. They give you a very balanced, comprehensive, and realistic overview of how your choice will play out.
