3. Ask Yourself The Right Questions
I have a handful of questions I ask myself before making decisions:
- What are the economic ramifications in terms of risk and opportunity cost of not doing something?
- How can I mitigate both?
- What is the worst that can happen?
- What is the likely outcome?
If I get in front of the worst and most likely outcomes and my gut still tells me to move forward, then I can push through my concerns about risk.
