The Two Key Components of Making Good Decisions

“A good decision has two characteristics:

1. It takes you to the place you want, and
2. It gets you there in an efficient way.”

“This is where clarity and information come into play. Clarity takes you to the place you want, while information gets you there in an efficient way.”

“In addition to clarity, you need information. Information has two roles:

1. It shows you the options that you could take, and
2. It helps you assess those options to choose the best one.

Without good information, you could miss an option altogether because you don’t even know that it exists. In addition, you might not be able to compare one option with another. Better information gives you better options and the ability to select the best one. This is how you get to your destination efficiently. You won’t waste your resources (time, money, and energy) to get there.”
