More is worse

A monthly event calendar
The Flathead Valley, home to Glacier International Airport, has a lot of options for things to do.

Is having more choices worse than having fewer choices?

Depends.

Brainstorming is designed to give you the opportunity to think about as many potential solutions as possible. Why? because you can only pick from the ideas you generate.

Paradoxically, to scale a lifetime of personal decision making, too many choices makes deciding take longer. Too many choices also creates chronic decision fatigue.

Two types of mustard, which do you pick?

What if you start thinking the opposite about everything you believe mentally?

dad

Tradition and dogma imprint ‘holidays’ as a once-a-year event.

Surrounding the ‘celebration’ is gift giving.

What if you thought differently?

Take Father’s Day for example…

No gifts necessary.

No gifts expected.

You are my gift.

What are my priorities? What is their prioritized order?

dad

The quality of your life is driven by the quality of your questions.

“Why are questions important” is an important question.

Why?

It’s easier to make decisions when you have prioritized priorities.

You cannot prioritize your priorities if:

  1. You don’t know your highest priorities.
  2. You have not prioritized your highest priorities.

Note: No one needs priorities. Unless, however, a person is striving for vibrancy. Then prioritized priorities is the only way.
