It's just a passive one, and passive decisions are almost always more expensive than the ones you make on purpose.""The fear is real. I'm not dismissing it, but the thing you're protecting yourself from by not deciding is almost never as bad as the months of invisible tax you're paying to avoid it.""I paid months of an anxiety tax and thousands of dollars in marketing revenue for a 20-minute conversation I was avoiding.
