Simple Filters to Help You Make Decisions
Text your thoughts and questions!
One of the most common things I hear from clients and listeners isn’t “I don’t know what to do,” it’s “I can’t decide what to do.” We know what’s on our overwhelming task list, but prioritizing, selecting, and making sure we’re doing the right thing at the right time is exhausting. Decision fatigue is real and can lead to burnout faster than you realize. This week, on episode 293 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I’m sharing five simple filters to help you make decisions!
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I explain why decision fatigue is the silent battery drainer of your life and share five simple filters you can use to make decisions without burning yourself out.
The five filters I cover in this episode include:
- Choosing a word of the year as your big-picture lens for assessing every decision.
- Using theme days and time blocks to create “buckets” for your tasks.
- Acknowledging the season of life you’re in and adjusting your expectations to match.
- Checking in on your physical, emotional, and mental bandwidth before making a commitment (matching your energy to the task).
- Living your values (values in action) and aligning what you do and when to reflect what truly matters.
You don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time you have to choose. By setting up these simple filters, you can stop spinning your wheels and start focusing on what truly matters. If you need help identifying your values or understanding your energy, head to positivelyproductive.com/PLPKit and grab your FREE Productivity Toolkit.
