Could you make better decisions?
I think we all could.
Do you have a hard time deciding what to order at a restaurant?
Do you ever make the “wrong” decision and, looking back, feel that you “knew” it would turn out bad?
Every moment of your life, you make decisions. Where to focus, who to marry, when to leave for a meeting.
But very few of us translate our decision making into probabilities.
Instead we make decisions based on feelings and get results influenced by luck.
Annie Duke, best-selling author of How To Decide and Thinking In Bets and professional poker champion, discusses the tools necessary to improve your decision making in Persuasion Play Podcast Episode 10!
