To Make Efficient Decisions, Know You Don’t Have Free Will
According to physics, success comes to those who let go.
All of those decisions you have to make — the ones that keep you up at night and prevent you from being present — they’re not worth the worry. According to the laws of physics, you don’t actually have any free will. Apparently, you can’t control what you do — at least not to the extent you think you can.
Of course, you still need to make decisions. But your struggle to come to a decision is futile — nothing but a waste of time. And no one likes to waste their time. If you wait too long to make a decision, you might miss an opportunity, worry for no reason, and delay the inevitable. It’s inefficient and counter-productive.
Understanding why you don’t have as much control as you think can help you stop this annoying cycle. You’ll start to think differently about the future, and approach decisions with a new mind-set — because you’ll understand why any decision you make, is the right decision.
In fact, if some of today’s greatest entrepreneurs hadn’t approached decisions through this lens, the world would be a very different place. There might not even have been a ‘Google’.
