Decision muscles

Decision muscles are a practical term for the ability to make choices, which is strengthened by regular, conscious decisions.

Definition

This is a tool term, not a formal clinical term. It means that decision-making can be trained through small choices, clear criteria, limiting the excess of options and reviewing the consequences. Over time, a person learns to distinguish decisions from ruminations and to act despite incomplete certainty.

Practice and life

Make one small decision every day within 2 minutes, write down the selection criterion and after some time evaluate the result without self-flagellation.

Common misunderstanding

It is a mistake to wait for 100% certainty. The second mistake is to train decisions only on cases with too high stakes.

Questions for self-reflection
