How do I make better decisions?๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿง โšก๏ธ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿซ

I ask myself one question:

โ†’ Am I using my emotional mind, my rational mind, or my wise mind?

Here’s what I mean.

The emotional mind ๐Ÿ”ด is driven by feelings ๐Ÿ‘‡

โ†’ You react

โ†’ You act impulsively

โ†’ You take things personally

The rational mind ๐Ÿ”ต is driven by facts ๐Ÿ‘‡

โ†’ You analyze

โ†’ You think logically

โ†’ You look for evidence

Both are useful. But neither is enough on its own.

That’s why I try to use my wise mind.

The wise mind ๐ŸŸฃ is where logic and emotions work together ๐Ÿ‘‡

You acknowledge how you feel, but you also look at the facts.

You don’t ignore your emotions.

You don’t let them make all your decisions either.

Whenever I’m about to make an important decision, I pause for a second and ask myself:
“Which mind am I using right now?”
