Before we go on, if you are anything like me it’s important to have parameters to reduce the paralysis by analysis. What this means is that you need to set forth specifics around the key components that are important for you to have data on when analyzing deals you are looking for (this could be for a business, the purchase of a home, a vehicle, etc.), what you are and are not willing to compromise, what your risk tolerance is, and so on and so forth. Outlining what the key parameters you have will prevent you from stalling when it’s time to make a decision. This gives you a built-in response system overtime as well as innate accountability.
