Lesson #1: The Cause of Something is Never One Thing

Your conclusion after a distressful event usually ends up something like this: “John, the product manager, is responsible for the slow sales this season – nothing else. We should fire him!” Or, “I have a flat tire because my husband failed to check the tires this morning.”

We tend to blame one thing, or one person when something bad happens. But usually, there’s more going on.

Lesson #2: Outside Information Influences our Decision-Making

News, friends, commercials, street signs, the words printed on our 5 dollars t-shirt from the local store, the sticky note on your cubicle.

Everything matters.

Everything we consume affects our judgment and can rearrange the thoughts inside our heads.

Sometimes you don’t need to get a complete 360-degree view of the situation. Actually, a lot of times, when something important needs to be decided, it’s best to remain on your own. With your own thoughts to make your mind.
