I need more time...by Seth Godin

You'll note that I posted something by Seth last month. He's someone who's challenged me with some good thinking and I just want to pass it along.

I need more time

By Seth Godin

First rule of decision making: More time does not create better decisions.

In fact, it usually decreases the quality of the decision.

More information may help. More time without more information just creates anxiety, not insight.

Deciding now frees up your most valuable asset, time, so you can go work on something else. What happens if, starting today, you make every decision as soon as you have a reasonable amount of data?
