Emotions


 
Beware allowing emotions to unduly influence your decisions. Emotions and big, complex decisions do not mix.

They either motivate a rush to judgment or slow our process down to a crawl. When we are feeling pressured, our logical brain is in the background while the rest of our gray matter works overtime to figure out how to move beyond the stress.

Guidance: If the situation is emotionally turbocharged, resist the rush to decide and step back and gain some help in looking at the problem and options objectively. Use the tools outlined below to help reframe and assess your options and expectations.
