To Reclaim Your Future......

...cut losses with the past.

In economics sunk cost refers to a cost that's been incurred and cannot be recovered.  We make irrational decisions about our future (I'm going to stay in this job I hate...) due to our misunderstanding of investment and our aversion to loss (...because I've already worked here 10 years).

But we can get clarity if we take a moment to reflect on whether our choices, habits and investments are still serving us.

You've already spent the time. If it's been invested wisely and still serving you, GREAT! Move forward intentionally and happily. If not, be sure you're not sinking further.

Your True Autobiography

Your calendar is the most accurate autobiography you’ll write.

You don’t vote with words or intentions—you vote with time, attention, and energy.

Forget what you say your priorities are; your calendar reveals the truth. Each block of time is a choice, stripped of excuses and rationalizations. It exposes what truly matters to you.

A powerful year-end practice? Review your calendar. Identify the people, projects, and activities that brought you the most joy and fulfillment, and resolve to prioritize more of what matters in the year ahead.

How To Avoid Indecision

Analysis paralysis occurs when too many choices leave us unable to decide. Even after making a choice, research shows that having more options often leads to more regret, not less.

In The Paradox of Choice, Barry Schwartz suggests a simple solution:

1) Identify your key criteria.

2) Choose the first option that meets them.

“Good enough” is almost always good enough—and far better than endless indecision.
