Have you been stuck making a decision and really have no idea what to do next? Often we believe we just need to ask an expert. But the truth is, you usually already have the answer — you just need the right process to access it.

Try this: write the decision at the top of a page. Then write every possible option, no matter how wild. Then write what you’re afraid of for each one. Then write what you’d tell a friend who came to you with this exact situation. That last question is usually where the real answer lives. You have more wisdom about your own business than you give yourself credit for. Trust it.
