USING "AHEAD" STRATEGY IN DECISION MAKING [Inspired by Farrah Gray]steemCreated with Sketch.

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Are you considering more structure and a process to handling decision making? Let me share with you my "AHEAD" methodology. It can help you track your options mentally and stay in tune with yourself:



A: Assess risks from an educated stand point. Do the research necessary to learn about all the potential risks involved in a pursuit. Don't overlook any of them.


H: Hear what enters your mind. Don't underestimate the power of gut instinct when weighing pros and cons and taking an honest look at the risks.

E: Evaluate thoughts and potential solutions to problems. You'll likely be problem solving from the day you ask those critical three questions. Take your time thinking through what you need to do in order to move forward. Think through every step and direction you decide to take. Consider other options along the way. Be open to circumstances that change your surroundings.
A: Act based experience and self-examination. Make calculated moves. Like the game of chess, see if you can act with your third move in mind.
D: Discern between what's working and what's not working to continue forward. This is when you might need to plan a new direction. We all hit walls once in a while. That doesn't mean we have to stop. We turn around and find another way. We have to be willing to let go of the ideas and pursuit that clearly aren't working. They should be placed in the desire category instead of the known-skill category. For example, if you thought you could be a football player but you've b;own out your knees and can't rely on them as you could in the past, maybe it's time to switch gears and admit that this pursuit may not be working. You've hit a wall, but there's an open road to be taken elsewhere with another set of your innate skills.
You can employ the AHEAD method pretty much anytime. It can be used for small-scale decisions, such as what to wear on a job interview or where to enroll in a class that will help you master a skill set. It also can be used for those larger, life-changing decisions, like where you choose to live, work, and start a family. life
