# Decision making
## The decision
- The question, written as a choice
- When it has to be made
- Who lives with the result
## What matters
- Must have
- Nice to have
- What I would regret ignoring
## Options
- The obvious choice
- The bold choice
- Doing nothing for now
## Trade-offs
- What each option costs in money and time
- What each option rules out
- Which one is easiest to reverse
## Unknowns
- Facts I could check this week
- Assumptions I am treating as facts
- Whose advice I trust here
## Gut check
- The option I hope wins a coin toss
- What I would tell a friend in my place
## Choice
- Decision and the reason in one sentence
- First step, and when
- Date to look back on it
