#96: Why Separate "Decision Time" from "Doing Time" (Psst: It's to Save Energy)

Sometimes, you need to think on your feet then act fast.

It's not impossible — plus, you're really good at it! — but it does take a ton of mental energy.

Today we're looking at the depleting habit of combining "decision time" with "doing time" as your norm.

If you find your days FULL of choices about what to do next, how to do it, how long to spend on it...and those choices all feel like pretty heavy lifts...this episode's for you.

This episode will show you how to make decisions in advance (sometimes they're full-on plans, sometimes they're tiny choices!) that set you up for easier and better follow-through.

We look at: 

  • The energy it takes to decide AND act all in one fell swoop
  • Structure vs Routine (why you don't need to micromanage your whole life to feel the benefits of "decisions in advance")
  • Honoring how you operate best
  • How to spot prime opportunities to separate your decision time from your "doing time"
