Most high-agency professionals make dozens of important calls each week—but almost none have a lightweight way to capture their reasoning before it disappears into calendar dust. This episode gives you a practical, 10-minute framework for turning any significant choice into a concise decision memo that improves clarity today and compounds learning over time. You’ll learn a simple structure—Context, Options, Criteria, Call—that fits on one page and can be drafted solo or with AI as a thinking partner. We’ll break down how to avoid “essay creep,” how to use prompts that sharpen trade-offs instead of generating fluff, and how to turn memos into a searchable archive of your judgment. By the end, you’ll have a repeatable, low-friction ritual: one decision, one memo, one place. It’s not about documentation for its own sake—it’s about building a personal decision database that quietly upgrades your strategic thinking every week. Clarity is leverage; this is how you capture it on demand.
