Summary
This throwback 4Ds session will bring you incredible value!! We talk about how to allocate your time, not judging yourself, and not knowing the alternative before making a decision. I believe that if you understand the nuances of not judging yourself that it will change your world. Making decisions with the data you have available at that moment and not judging yourself is the biggest advice I can give you to go fast. Executing is better than pondering and strategizing. Excited for you guys to listen to this one.
Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.

| 0:00.0 | This is the Gary V. Audio Experience. |
| 0:05.0 | What's on your mind? What can I answer? |
| 0:07.0 | How do you make determinations on where and how you spend your time knowing how valuable and how limited your time is? |
| 0:14.0 | I've got some really happy asking this question because if you can internalize what I'm about to say, you will not believe what it's about to do for you. |
| 0:21.0 | The answer is the ability not to judge myself. |
| 0:26.0 | You know how a lot of people, there's a really dirty secret in the strategy world of like Bain and McKinsey where if you really get them drunk, they admit that the actions lead to the strategy not the other way around. |
| 0:41.0 | That's my answer to you. |
| 0:43.0 | How? I make decisions. |
| 0:46.0 | I try to look at my calendar the week ahead and see if any decisions I made four weeks earlier that made me think this was a good use of time. Am I able to move something, cut something down? |
| 0:56.0 | I'm extremely thoughtful about cutting times and meetings. |

| 1:42.0 | When you actually level that all up, my friend, it really is liberating. |
| 1:47.0 | You will never even come close to making the right decision. |
| 1:51.0 | I mean it. |
| 1:53.0 | You just don't know what the alternative would be. People think that there's a right answer. |
| 1:57.0 | You as an operator of your business make the right call that feels right at that moment and just move. |
| 2:06.0 | And people spend all this time and money on trying to think that there's a proper answer. |
