Thought Tweet #544 About Decisions: as a general rule, avoid making them when you are stressed or pressed

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Only on rare occasions do we need to deliver decisions with urgency. For the vast majority of situations we can take time to de-stress or reduce negative feelings before we make decisions. Given a little time for clear thought we can consider options, we can check our gut, and we can perform common-sense tests. As the saying goes, "If it's worth doing it's worth doing right".
