Chapter 9- Decoding Decision-Making: Embracing the Consequences

Share This Post

Let’s explore the fifth and often overlooked stage of decision-making: ‘Living with it.’


Once a decision is made, it’s crucial to navigate and embrace its consequences. This stage demands introspection and resilience.


The most significant challenge here is overconfidence.


Post-decision, it’s common to feel invincible.


However, if things don’t go as planned, ego often hinders acknowledging mistakes.


Questions like, ‘How could I be wrong?’ or ‘I can’t change my decision now, what will people think?’ may arise.


I’ve witnessed many corporate professionals turned entrepreneurs struggling with their choices. Despite being better suited elsewhere, they resist reconsideration, leading to dissatisfaction.


Remember, it’s okay to change your mind – within sensible limits. It’s a natural part of growth.


During this stage, aim for confidence without arrogance.


Prepare to be wrong by anticipating potential challenges and devise proactive strategies to address them.


With this, we conclude our discussion on decision-making.



It’s been an insightful journey exploring the intricacies of navigating choices and their aftermath.


Remember, every decision shapes our path, and it’s natural to encounter doubts along the way. But it’s also these moments that foster growth and resilience.


As you continue your journey, trust in your abilities and embrace the wisdom gained from each decision, whether it leads to success or offers valuable lessons.
