| 0:00.0 | It feels like we're making more decisions than ever before. Every day it's a constant stream of choices. |
| 0:09.0 | So let me ask you, how long did you spend deciding on what to wear today, or which email to answer first, |
| 0:16.0 | or what to order the last time you were at a restaurant? We agonize over these choices like their life-altering. |
| 0:23.7 | But what if many of the decisions that stress us out don't really matter much? |
| 0:28.8 | That's why today's SYSK trending topic is a better approach to decision-making. |
| 0:34.8 | Today, in my conversation with Andy Duke, a recognized decision strategist, |

| 1:30.5 | He doesn't just tell these stories. He goes there. He's hunted for priceless artifacts stolen |
| 1:36.4 | by the Nazis in World War II. He's traced the final flight of a pilot who vanished mid-mission |
