Summary

Are you trapped in the gray space? I’m talking about the area in life where no actual answer exists. It’s the place that ultimately destroys us, because instead of owning ‘yes’ or ‘no’ we find ourselves stuck in the’ maybes'. It's the land of lost dreams, lost hope, and lost time. Committing one way or the other will at the very least solidify an outcome. You either ask the girl out or you don’t. You’ll either buy the car or you won’t. Making a decision gives you the opportunity to assess the results and make an adjustment moving forward. Living in the gray only leads to doubt and fear. Today I’m going to explain to you how I got stuck in the gray and what you can do if you find yourself there.

We only have so many decisions in us each and every day. Consciously or subconsciously, we are constantly in the process of making decisions.

much easier. So think about if you will just for a moment, all the decisions your task to make every day.

I'm shared before, maybe you've missed the episode, maybe you didn't care,

0:51.0

a conversation about decision fatigue and how many different things

0:56.2

could you do in the morning to start to streamline the amount of decisions you have to make

0:59.6

because it's my opinion not scientifically backed I don't believe if it is backed I

1:04.9

certainly don't have the research but I believe that we only have so many

1:09.7

decisions that we can effectively make throughout a day and that we get to a certain point where we're just out of mental processing power.

1:17.0

We need a recharge.

1:18.0

And so you think for some of us it could be everything from what to wear what underwear to put on what color socks pants like all the combinations there what to eat for breakfast

1:48.1

That was my status quo or some version of that until I realize the power of having morning routines.

Now, I can simply replace one of the tiles.
