14 - The Hidden Cost of Indecision: How to Reclaim Your Time
Listen now
Description
We all know what decision fatigue is and how we should create routines, habits, and even uniforms to reduce the number of decisions we have to make. But the other piece of decision fatigue that's not talked about as much is indecision - delaying or prolonging a decision because we tell ourselves we need more time or more information. Every unmade decision is like an open loop in your brain costing you time and energy just like a nail in your tire that is slowly leaking air while you drive. The faster you can make your decision, the less air you'll leak.     Learning how to recognize indecision and having strategies to help you make faster, more confident decisions will help save you so much time, energy, and mental space. But the key is knowing which decisions to make quickly, and which decisions to take your time with. In this episode, you'll learn it all, including my five favorite hacks for getting over the indecision hump.     Key Takeaways:     00:00 Stress Less This Holiday workshop announcement   01:27 Dealing with decision fatigue   04:16 What is indecision and what does it cost you?   05:38 Recognizing how indecisiveness shows up   13:24 Strategies for making faster, more confident decisions   18:33 The key step to strong decision-making   19:27 Choosing your decisions and your strategy   20:18 Getting support with the big decisions in your life     Resources + Links:     Get your ticket to Stress Less This Holiday workshop   Send me a DM on Instagram   Episode #10: Say Goodbye to Last-Minute Dinner Stress   Apply to work with me     Let's Connect on Social:     Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovemothernurture/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/themothernurture   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katelyndenning/   Website: https://www.themothernurture.com/
