This book emerged from my noticing a trend of unhealthy decision-making influenced by social media, low self-esteem, desire to get rich quick, loneliness, impulsiveness, and addiction to name a few. These decisions often left them emotionally, physically, and financially overwhelmed, which worsened through the pandemic. This book guides its readers in learning about and applying healthier decision-making skills to support individuals in learning and improving their daily decision-making process and making less impulsive regretful decisions.
The book centers on key elements and biases that guide your choices. Here we explained and discussed how unhealthy decision-making strategies that developed in your childhood, social environment, and even social media contributed to unhealthy patterns of thinking that influence your decision-making strategies. You will find this book to be a beneficial and insightful change to how you make decisions going forward that will decrease your stress and regrets made from impulsive decisions or at least allow you to see you need help.
I believe that most people have the power to control their intrusive thoughts (that little devil on your shoulder) and empower them not to react to those thoughts emotionally. While the book focuses on building decision-making skills in all personal and social situations, most importantly, it perhaps provides insight into the origins of negative decision-making strategies that came about in your life and why it is essential to stop using them in your daily decision-making process!
