26 – Analysis Paralysis: You Better Make the Right Choice, Idiot (Part 1)

<p>Can’t decide what to listen to today? Well, don’t worry. We’ll make the choice for you! Tune into this week’s episode of At Your Own Risk for part one of Sarah’s deep-dive on the difficulties of decision making, why having endless options isn’t always a good thing, and what the deal is with analysis paralysis.</p><p>We’ve all been there. You need to make a choice. Maybe it’s going on a date, picking a font for your resume, ordering hangover food, or deciding whether or not to just shave your whole head. (Okay maybe that last one is just Dana…) But don’t fret too much because you aren’t alone and Sarah is here to rescue us all from ourselves, as usual.</p><p>This week we learn what analysis paralysis is, the many forms it can come in, and how much it can impact our confidence and joy. Next week we’ll tackle the ways to combat the feeling of needing to choose the perfect thing and how to ultimately make choices that don’t leave you feeling like the biggest ding dong on your block. See you next Tuesday!</p><p>As always, please find it in your heart to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts - but only if you love us.</p><p>Like the show and want it to keep happening?
