I’ve come to a point in my life where I think through important decisions. I know. There’s a little check list I go through when weighing something out. First, is it actually important? Will the outcome matter next week? Next month? Will I care about this in a year? Five years? Almost always, the answer is no. It turns out that not many things are very important.
But what if something is? Then the actual decision has to be made. And I think: What’s the worst-case scenario if I do this? Or if I do that? The very worst case, reasonably?
