Better Decisions Faster with Paul Epstein

On the Confidence Spectrum: "It's not about being absolutely confident or not at all; it’s about recognizing and adjusting the levels of self-assurance as if using a dimmer switch." - Paul Epstein  -------------------------------------------------------------------   In a compelling episode of "Joseph Jaffe is not Famous," I sat down with Paul Epstein, the esteemed author of "Better Decisions Faster," to delve into the complexities of decision-making and the pursuit of confidence. Our conversation traversed the landscape of self-awareness, shedding light on the profound impact that confidence, or the lack thereof, can have on our decisions and ultimately, our lives. -------------------------------------------------------------------     Here are my show notes:    13m - Light Switch; Confidence Dimmer; Confidence Container 24m - Confidence is the Ante to play (chicken egg of Making Decisions and Confidence) 26m - Me Too / pre-confidence and post-confidence 29m - Proof Serum versus Truth Serum 30m - Sue-Ann; Love/Hate/Tolerate as a % of your day 32m - So what are you after? 33m - Confidence = Identity (core values); Authentic Confidence; Inconsistent Confidence 36m - Confidence = Values x Action (how consistently you do it) 38m - I will live my value of ______ by _______ 45m - Head (Mindset), Heart (Identity, Truth), Hands 49m - Green Light; The Messy Middle 50/51m - Values for Head, Heart and Hand 54m - The Worst Decision is Indecision/paralysis 55m - Deflection and Binary 57m - Private Opinion of Heart; Think with your Heart 59m - Thank God its Monday   -------------------------------------------------------------------   “Public opinion is a weak tyrant compared with our own private opinion.” - Henry David Thoreau -------------------------------------------------------------------     If you like what you see, please subscribe to the show: bit.ly/subscribetotheshow Learn more about your ad choices.
