We work smarter when we choose to make decisions and practice making more powerful decisions.

Decisions are a way for us to work smarter as they help us create the lives and businesses we want without working longer or harder than necessary.

When we make decisions, we give ourselves the power to inspire aligned thoughts, feelings, and actions that will support us as we create the highest versions of ourselves.

Below are six ways we cause ourselves to work harder and longer than necessary.

1. When we do not make decisions and live on autopilot based on decisions made years ago.

When we think we must keep the same decisions a younger version of ourselves made 25 years ago, we obligate ourselves or our future self to choices that may not be aligned with our current self. We cause our present self feel resentful and unmotivated to show up as our best selves. We do not need to be married to the same person, live in the same house, follow the same career path, etc. But why would the current self choose it? Why would the current you decide to be married to the same person? Would the current you choose the same house? Would the current you choose the same career? Why or why not. Sometimes the answer is yes, and sometimes no. Just make sure you like your reasons for the you you are today.

2. Thinking there is a right or wrong decision.

The key to working smarter is learning that there are no right or wrong decisions but how we think about them.

3. We don’t make decisions ahead of time or honor them if we make them.

Making decisions ahead of time is using our highest brain to determine what our future self will do, and we build our relationship with ourselves when we set our future self up to succeed and then follow through with our word to ourselves.

4. Not making decisions as we think some decisions will be mistakes or lead to failures.

We are either winning or learning. When we make decisions, we will either get the result we want or learn so much about

ourselves and the process.

5. Thinking that the emotions that come after we make a decision mean it is wrong.

All decisions come with emotions; sometimes, emotions are a gift to reveal our current relationship with ourselves.

6. Thinking that making decisions takes time.

We make decisions in a second. Any time that came before we made the decision was most likely because of one or more of the prior beliefs about decision-making.
