Signs Its Time for a Midlife Career Change

Signs Its Time for a Midlife Career Change Signs Its Time for a Midlife Career Change Everything was fine for the first 20 years of your career. You were focused. You were happy. You were going up the ladder.Then, you hit an age. Maybe it was 30, or 40, or 50. But suddenly, everything changed.Now, you are no longer happy at your current job. Something just isnt right. Nothing about the job itself has really changed all that much, but you just arent satisfied like you used to be.Its confusing. You worked your entire career to get to where you are today. Youre at the top of the mountain, but now you wonder ifyou were climbing the wrong mountain the whole time.Youre questioning everything youve worked for.Sound familiar? Dont worry. Youre not alone. I talk to multiple people every single day who are having this very same experience. We rarely talk about these feelings and thoughtswith one another, butI wish we would.Some see these thoughts as indicators that they have failed somewhere along the way. I prefer to look at it a little differently Youveachieved your original goal, and now youre ready for a new one.The priorities in your life have shifted. Maybe you are no longer as motivated by money perhaps your retirement account is secure. Alternatively, maybe money motivates you more perhaps you want to catch up on your retirement savings.Maybe youve learned more about yourself. You really dont like managing people after all, or you really dont want to work in a creative atmosphere where the imperative to produce new content never goes away.Whatever the case, the fact is youve grown. Youve changed. Growth and change are both good things - and theyre inevitable parts of life.Making a midlife career change doesnt mean youve failed.It just means your priorities have evolved. Its time to find something new that better aligns with your new goals and your new direction.Start small. You wont find the answer tomorrow, nor will you find it in your head, thinking for hour s, devising the perfect solution. The answer most likely doesnt exist in a personality test, either.Almost always,a career change happens by doing. It happens by getting out there and having conversations with other people in different lines of work. It happens by researching various companies. It happens by volunteering for projects outside of your comfort zone. It happens by trying new things to find what works and what doesnt.Career change is not an easy process, but the journey will take you to where youre meant to be a new life that is in alignment with your current and future priorities.A version of this article originally appeared onCopeland Coaching.Angela Copeland is a career coach and CEO at her firm,Copeland Coaching.

6 practices to help build a healthy team climate

6 practices to help build a healthy team climate 6 practices to help build a healthy team climate There is a growing body of research that suggests a healthy climate leads to higher job satisfaction, a healthier workforce (both physically and mentally), lower turnover, higher employee satisfaction, and improved outcomes. This has led to the current organizational movement of focusing on healthier team climates. The key motivation: higher levels of turnover, fewer people entering a particular field or, in some cases, a competitive job market. Attracting and retaining top talent and then ensuring an organization is one in which employees can thrive now sit at the top of leaders’ priority lists.A healthy climate is one in which team members feel comfortable being themselves, asking questions, sharing ideas, and trusting that their co-workers are there for them when needed. A healthy climate is one in which team members feel valued, respected and safe. The health of the climate is affected by each team member’s actions; it is not just up to the leader to create a healthy climate - it is everyone’s responsibility. However, the leader’s behaviors are indeed essential to creating a climate that minimizes burnout and ensures teams are thriving.We recommend leaders support their teams by adopting these six practices.Regularly assess team and climate healthTake time for the leader and team to reflect on and assess team behaviors and practices. Too often unhealthy climates are left to grow and become the norm because leaders do not fully understand the root causes of the negative behaviors and attitudes and, as a result, feel at a loss as to how to affect positive change. An important step in combating turnover and burnout is to invite the team to provide honest feedback about the team’s effectiveness through the completion of a team assessment. This gives the team the opportunity to truly reflect on and share in a safe and anonymous way what they believe the team’s strengths are and, more importantly, where the team needs to improve in terms of its cultu re. The results of an assessment can give the leader and team valuable insight into how to best support the team, the team’s strengths, and the behaviors and practices that require improvement.Let go of the past and start freshI have led countless team development sessions over the years, and in almost every session, I ask, “What do you need to let go of in order to be an even more effective team?” By letting go, we don’t mean specific tasks or responsibilities; we mean anything the team or individuals are holding onto from the past that is affecting how they engage with one another in the present.Challenge assumptionsHow often do you hear, “That’s not the way we do things around here,” or, “They’ll never go for that,” or, “Our manager has never been a in our position, so he/she will never understand.” These are unproductive assumptions that prevent dialogue, innovation and the building of healthy relationships. The leaders and team members who are able to de velop the habit of challenging their own assumptions and those of others by asking, “How do we know that is true?” are the ones who are able to grow. The more teams are able to identify unproductive assumptions and challenge them, the greater the dialogue, trust and respect can be established within the team.Develop stronger interpersonal relationshipsEvery interaction is an energy exchange. We can either fill people up or deplete them. Stronger relationships are developed when we consciously choose to be kind, respectful and compassionate toward one another. This happens more easily when we let go of past issues and unproductive assumptions of one another and choose to see each other in a positive light.Look for what’s right in others, rather than what’s wrongThis goes hand-in-hand with No. 4. We are more able to build stronger relationships when we focus on the talents of our team members and respect the unique qualities each person brings to the team. What we focus on gro ws. If we focus on one another’s strengths, we will continue to see strengths; if we focus on weaknesses, we will only see weaknesses.Take time to recognize teammates and celebrate accomplishmentsFeeling consistently unappreciated can lead to burnout. Praise doesn’t cost anything and has priceless benefits when it comes to workplace happiness, motivation and a sense of value and belonging. Leaders who model the way by genuinely taking the time to recognize team member accomplishments, no matter how small, will create an environment of recognition and value. A simple, “Thank you for taking such good care of the client’s request yesterday. I noticed you went above and beyond with them,” will go a very long way to ensure team members know that their contributions make a difference.None of these practices is difficult. Simply assessing the team and identifying strengths and opportunities for improvement helps lay the foundation for each of the other practices. It is rewarding and often surprising to both the leader and team members to see just how quickly the health of the climate can improve.About the author: Nicole Bendaly is the President of KCo.

14 Tips For Anyone Thinking of Freelancing

14 Tips For Anyone Thinking of Freelancing 14 Tips For Anyone Thinking of Freelancing In 2008 I quit my job as research director at a technology company. I was burned out after four years of non-stop high-pressure work and didn’t know what I was going to do next. I decided to take a month off and not look for a job. What emerged in the six years since then was a solid career as a freelance writer, a completed master’s degree in writing and a life in which I have a lot more freedom than I ever envisioned as a full-time employee. But it wasn’t easy, and I made a lot of mistakes. If you’re considering working for yourself as a contractor or freelancer and working from home, here are some things you should consider based on what I’ve learned. 1. Be Clear on Why You Want to Freelance My original goal when I started freelancing was to write a book. The book turned into a graduate degree and a completed 230-page thesis. About a year after graduation my personal writing turned into drawing. Freelancing is a great way to have the freedom you want to pursue other things, whether that’s family, travel, a side project, or an artistic project. The more clear you are on what you want to do with your non-paid time, the easier it will be to focus on your paid work. 2. Use your Network and LinkedIn I wouldn’t have been able to have a freelance career had I not put effort into building my network before I left the corporate world. When I was employed full-time I connected on LinkedIn with everyone I was connected to in real life, both inside and outside my job. If you work for a company of 150 people, that’s at least 100 connections. After every event I attended I diligently went through the cards I had collected and made connections on LinkedIn. I also wrote a few recommendations and was recommended in turn. I wrote a summary on my LinkedIn page, used keywords and provided the same detail as on my resume under each of my positions. If you’re in any business remotely related to technology, LinkedIn is your lifeline. Complete your profile, upload a photo, and use keywords. While some clients I already knew, others were friends of friends and some came through blind searches for a specific skill set. 3. Schedule Work Time and Be Flexible I’m the sort of person who can be entertained by herself all day, whether that’s making things, learning about new things, and yes, wasting time on the Internet. Many books on creativity will tell you to schedule your creative time. I found scheduling my work time to be a more effective strategy than scheduling my non-paid time. For someone like me who wants to be doing creative stuff 24/7, it’s better schedule my left-brain paid time so my right brain knows when it can come out to play. I’ve made the mistake of leaving art supplies on my desk and losing an entire afternoon to a drawing. Every day is different. Based on my deadlines I wake up every day with a guesstimate of how many hours I will need to work. This allows me to gauge how much time I have to fit in other things, which could include making art, updating my website, working out, networking events or other appointments. For big projects I gather information over time and then spend one or two days working non-stop, clearing my schedule of other appointments ahead of time. I would rather work till midnight a few days a month and have whole afternoons to devote to things that I find fun. When you are not bound to the world of 9-5, you are free to find out how YOU like to work, however eccentric that may be. It’s probably not 9-5. 4. Show Current Work Samples on Your Website If LinkedIn is your “ad,” your website is your full brochure. Add samples or links and update your client list as soon as a project is completed. I’ve seen many freelancer websites that don’t show anything the person has done since 2010. Would you want to hire someone who doesn’t look like they’ve been working in the last 4 years? On the other hand, don’t be afraid to share samples of old work. One recent client hired me because they liked a report I wrote in 2009. 5. Set Boundaries with Your Friends You may have friends and family members who want to hang out or call you to chat during the day, and it’s up to you to teach them how to contact you and not drop by without notice. If you let people push your boundaries on easy days, it will be hard to make them go away when you’re on a tight deadline.  I made a habit of scheduling lunches, knowing that I have to eat anyway and I get tired of making lunches at home. 6. Pushing Back on Timing is OK You are in charge of your schedule. Often clients want projects done immediately, and it’s your job  set boundaries. I managed two new projects plus ongoing work for Simply Hired during a cross-country move. Both new clients were willing to work with me knowing that there was one week in which I would be unavailable. Be honest about your deadlines on other projects. Just as doctors have other patients in their schedule, potential clients know that you have other clients. If they want your services, they will work within your availability. 7. Know What You are Worth If setting prices makes you uncomfortable, do some research. Talk to other freelancers and people who hire freelancers. I avoid giving quotes in writing. Discussing pricing in person or over the phone gives you the opportunity to negotiate. You will sense immediately if your price is too high. I prefer to bill by the project rather than the hour, since I dont like keeping track of hours. Find out what works in your industry. I don’t believe in working for free or below market rate. Therefore, I have never worked for free or below market rate. I’ve had plenty of people try to lowball me with hourly rates more appropriate for a new college graduate with little experience. In those cases, I politely point to my 20 years experience and graduate degree. Working for less than you are worth will only make you feel resentment toward the people you are working for. 8. Job Ads Are an Important Source of Information Even though I have not looked seriously for a full-time job since starting freelancing, I still read job ads. Why? To keep abreast of changes in my industry and to find out which companies are hiring and might need freelance help. In the six years since I left my last office job a whole new  field called content marketing has emerged. I read job descriptions on Simply Hired for positions of people that might end up hiring me, such as a director of content. It helps me get a sense of all the things they have on their plate and how I can add value as well as informing me of the latest buzzwords in the field. 9. Get Regular Clients Freelancing doesn’t mean you have to leave the security of a regular paycheck. I wrote a report every quarter for one of my first clients. This covered my expenses for over a year. Now I have a regular client that covers most of my expenses. Regular clients provide consistency in your work and give you peace of mind from having to chase the next client win while you are working on a big project. 10. Save Money for Taxes In the first few years I made the mistake of treating my income as I would a paycheck that already had taxes taken out. You will dread the month of April if you do this. I recommend hiring an accountant and making quarterly tax payments if you can. You will need to learn about what you can and can’t deduct, how to account for your home office space and how to account for your car and computer equipment. If you plan on hiring others, you may want to consider forming an LLC or other tax entity. I file as a sole proprietor. 11. Let Technology Help You There are technology solutions to help you with just about every problem you can imagine: scheduling, project management, expenses and invoicing. Some of them are free. If not, they will give you a free trial. Research the ones that address your problems and pick one. I use Mint to track my spending. It makes preparing taxes much simpler by allowing me to categorize tax deductible expenses, label checks and split transactions (e.g., buying both office supplies and personal items at Target) into tax deductible portions. I use  Harvest    for time tracking and invoicing. I use Evernote to take notes on client phone calls, clip articles related to a project and keep track of my published work. One of my clients uses Wrike to manage projects for its freelance and in-house writers. 12. Read Contracts After you submit a verbal or written proposal for a project, the client will send you a contract. You will submit a W-9 and most likely need to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Most of the companies I have worked with have a standard contract that includes a non-compete agreement, with an “Exhibit” or “Statement of Work” on the last page with information about the project and the payment terms. Read everything, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. There are sometimes mistakes, and it’s your right to ask for the payment terms you want. For work based on a project fee, I usually ask for 50 percent upfront and 50 percent upon completion. Ongoing clients may ask that you submit your monthly invoice by a certain date each month. 13. Get a Contact in Accounting During the contracting process you will likely be given an email address to accounts payable like, “AP@companyname.com”. I recommend sending an email to that address after getting started with a new client and making a personal connection to the person in accounting who answers it. There are a many things that can get in the way of you getting your money on time, and about all of them have happened to me. During the contracting process, ask your client how they would like to be billed, how often they pay, and if they pay bills on time. I have a friend who works at a company for which vendors have shut off services due to non-payment of bills more than six months past due. Needless to say, it is hard for him to find contractors. 14. Plan to Receive Money in 30 Days by Mail While I have heard of immediate payment terms and received it at times, this rarely happens. It seems no company likes to pay their bills early, and most want Net 30 terms. My one dream client pays invoices by direct deposit in about 10 days. Mostly though, I am obsessed with the mailbox. Conclusion Freelancing is possible for me because of the expertise and network I built up while working in the corporate world. The freedom I have now is the direct result of having “paid my dues” by working hard for many years. Depending on what you want to do, freelancing at an early stage in your career may not be the best choice. What I thought I wanted to at age 25 is different from what I was doing at age 35, and different from what I am now doing. The possibilities evolve as your assignments evolve, whether that’s at a full-time job or a unique freelance project. The joy in a freelance life is the ability to set your own hours, work on a variety of projects and have the free time pursue your other interests. If you approach it with the attitude that you are better able to provide value to clients by having the freedom to work the way you want, you can have a successful freelance business.

Making Sure Your Resume is Up to the Task

Making Sure Your Resume is Up to the Task Making Sure Your Resume is Up to the Task Job seekers beware: your resume can be your own worst enemy. Today, hiring managers literally must sift through resumes from hundreds of applicants who are applying for a single job. Its a tedious process for the manager, but an important one. Smart managers understand how important it is to hire the right person for the job, particularly in such a competitive job market. From that large pile of resumes, the hiring manager will select only a handful to call in for an interview. The job of your resume and cover letter is to make sure you are one of the chosen few. So how can you create a resume that will stand out and allow you to secure the interview? There are many resources available to guide you through the creation of a winning resume and you can easily find examples on the Web. But regardless of the final format, there are a few guiding principles that apply to any cover letter and resume. Customize Your Cover Letter In many cases, you will be asked to submit a resume via postal mail or e-mail. In either case, your resume should be accompanied by a well-written cover letter. The cover letter itself can help you get to the next step. Dont submit a generic cover letter. While it should be short and concise, make sure it is obvious that you have researched the company and their products and services and that you have highlighted the skills that they are looking for. Tailor Your Resume for the Job Dont submit a generic resume. Like the cover letter, always tweak and adjust your resume so that it clearly presents your skills and accomplishments most closely associated with the job skills that are required for the position you are applying for. You should customize your resume for every job you apply for. Be Specific with Your Career Objective When you state your career objective at the top of your resume, be sure to tailor it for the position. A career objective such as Engineering manager for a successful company is too general. Be more specific, for example, Key contributor to engineering management team for a medical device manufacturer. Quantitate Your Accomplishments Whenever Possible This section of your resume is key to securing the interview. Dont be shy about stating your recent accomplishments, and be sure to put those that are most relevant to the position at the top of the list. Try to quantitate your accomplishments wherever possible. For example, you may have enhanced a product design that lengthened the product lifecycle by 2 years or redesigned a component that reduced manufacturing costs by 20%. The numbers make the accomplishment tangible and stand out. Proofread While you spend so much time creating the content of your resume, a simple misspelling can land your resume in the wastebasket. Typos suggest that you are sloppy and careless. Proofread your resume carefully and have someone else read it and proofread it as well. Sometimes the simplest mistake can be your undoing. Seek Assistance If you are not comfortable with your resume, seek professional assistance. There are hundreds of educational resources available on the internet as well as professionals who will help you develop a winning resume. The document is too important not to put your best foot forward. Your resume provides a brief snapshot of yourself. Be sure it accurately conveys your career, your accomplishments, and your goals. And good luck with the interview. Tom Ricci is the owner of Ricci Communications. Your resume provides a brief snapshot of yourself. Be sure it accurately conveys your career, your accomplishments, and your goals.

5 tips for when you dread a difficult conversation with an employee

5 tips for when you dread a difficult conversation with an employee 5 tips for when you dread a difficult conversation with an employee Recently a client told me that while she was having a discussion with a direct report about a violation of the dress code the person erupted, quit on the spot and immediately left the office. My client was new to her role and this set back wreaked havoc on her confidence. Together we role played the conversation and how to depersonalize it.What I found most interesting is that the company rehired the person who had abandoned the workplace. The very day she walked off the job she assumed another leadership role in another location. What???Now my client must manage a team who knows the organization will tolerate unprofessional and insubordinate behavior. She must gain respect from a team who knows they don’t have to listen or adhere to company policy to keep their job. And she is asking herself what just happened because she used to like her job.We are now positioning her transferable skills for a position in a company where people live the values that hang on the wall. You can learn more about how to define, grow and position your transferable skills for advancement here. In the meantime this is what I shared with her on how to prepare for a difficult conversation with an employee.1. Get out the company policy or company value they are violatingSeek alignment and understanding.2. Open the discussion with curiosityTell them you understand how they might not be thinking about this policy/value (builds alignment) and ask them if they knew about it. Show them the document. At that point they will see where you are going with the conversation and begin to comment.3. If they become argumentative make the discussion be about their behavior versus the policy â€" not them versus youRemove yourself from the equation. No emotion. It is them versus the document â€" them versus the values/policy of the organization.4. Listen. Affirm. Be firm on the ruleIf they get defensive and the conversation is not moving forward, ask them if they were you what would they do.5. In the e nd remind them this isn’t personalThank them for their consideration and cooperation in respecting the policy/value. As employees we all have to align with the goals and values of the organization.

How to Be Liked By Everybody at Work - The Muse

How to Be Liked By Everybody at Work - The Muse How to Be Liked By Everybody at Work You want to be well-liked by absolutely everybody in your office (who doesn’t, right?). Sure, those donuts you bring in for your team every Monday morning are definitely a step in the right direction. But, when it comes to being admired and respected, there’s a little more to it than those frosted pastries. What’s even more important? Being an inclusive and empathetic team member. Embodying those qualities will not only mean you’re well-liked, but also respected. So, how do you go about it? Here are a few tips to set you in the right direction. 1. Resist the Cliques Much like in a high school cafeteria, cliques can quickly form at work. You find the people who you get along well with, and then you tend to spend the majority of your time socializing with only them. That might be comfortable, but it’s hardly inclusive. So, challenge yourself to venture outside of your usual group and interact with some new people. Sit with a different table at lunch or strike up a conversation at happy hour with someone you’ve never met before. The more you can put yourself out there, the better! 2. Pay Attention to Your Language You know that being inclusive means being all-encompassing. But, you’d likely be surprised at how often your word choices can betray your intentions. Did you start an email with a seemingly casual “hey guys”? Perhaps a more neutral “hey team” would’ve been better. Did you provide well wishes for a holiday you just assumed your co-worker celebrates? Did you make a comment or remark that you meant to be humorous- but could be easily misconstrued by someone with a different cultural upbringing? Listen, as long as you were well-meaning, most people won’t take offense from a minor slip-up. But, if you really want to roll up your sleeves and be more inclusive of all of the people you work with, keeping a watchful eye on your words is a great place to start. 3. Be the New Employee Welcome Wagon You likely know firsthand how intimidating it can be to start a new job. You need to get up to speed on the entire company- while feeling like you don’t have a single ally or confidante in your corner. Why not step up and be that trusted friend for people who are just getting started? Take a new team member out for lunch or for an after-work drink during his first week. If you see someone looking lost in the hallway? Help get him to where he needs to go. Being warm and welcoming to new employees is not only just the nice thing to do, it’s also a great benefit to you too- you’re widening your web of contacts and friends in the office! 4. Think Outside of Yourself While you’re gathered around the coffee pot in the morning, one of your colleagues laments to you that she’s feeling totally stuck in Excel. Considering that you’re hardly a spreadsheet whiz yourself, you commiserate with her and then go about your day. But, being inclusive extends far beyond just what you can do for someone else- it helps to bring some other people into the fold as well. So, if you know for a fact that Dave in accounting is a tried and true Excel master, offer to connect the two of them so that he can help her with her problem. Doing so is a surefire way to not only be more inclusive yourself, but to encourage that atmosphere across your entire office. 5. Ask Questions People sometimes assume that being empathetic and open-minded means blindly accepting things without a second thought. But, in reality, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Inclusiveness is about understanding and accepting all different types of people. And, asking questions about various beliefs, traditions, or opinions is a great way to engage in a thoughtful conversation while learning more about the people who differ from you. So, talk to that team member about that cause she regularly volunteers for or ask that colleague about that religious tradition he’s currently honoring. There’s nothing more inclusive than putting in the effort to get to know people on a deeper level. When it comes to being well-liked in the office, bringing in the occasional treat is a great place to start! However, being likable goes much deeper. Employees who are inclusive, empathetic, and friendly are the ones who are always most admired and respected by their team members. So, put these tips to work, and you’re sure to have stronger bonds with all of your co-workers.

ASME to Release Three New Concise Monographs

ASME to Release Three New Concise Monographs ASME to Release Three New Concise Monographs ASME to Release Three New Concise Monographs ASME Press will publish the three latest entries in its Concise Monograph Series later this month. ASME members will save $20 off the retail price of each of the books, which can be pre-ordered now on ASME.org. Toward Consistent Design Evaluation of Nuclear Power Piping by Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis by Lingfu Zeng, Lennart Jansson and Nils-Erik Wiberg is part of the Nuclear Engineering and Technology for the 21st Century Monograph Series. This 80-page book addresses several issues that are essential for achieving a consistent design-by-analysis in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, including nonlinear alternative rules, fatigue, thermal ratcheting, dynamic loads, strain-based criteria, nonlinear finite element procedures, supports under combined stresses, among others. Unlike other publications on piping, this monograph is focused on commercial software and current practices for power uprate and life extension of aging nuclear power facilities. The second new book, Magnetic Bearings for Mechanical Cardiac Assist Devices, is part of the Biomedical and Nanomedical Technologies Monograph Series. Written by Steven Day, Shanbao Cheng, and Arnold David Gomez, this 64-page publication examines magnetic bearings - mechatronic devices that produce contact-free electromagnetic force to support a load, such as a moving train or a spinning rotor - and their use in rotary ventricular assist devices (VADs) to increase design life, reduce or eliminate material wear and bearing maintenance, as well as to increase biocompatibility by eliminating high-fluid stresses and heat generation. The book explores the typical structures of passive bearings, which are comprised entirely of permanent magnets, and active magnetic bearings (AMB), which use electromagnets and position sensors to control the position of the rotor. It also discusses the components of a typical AMB system, including the actuator, position sensor, controller, a nd amplifier, as well as different structures of electromagnet actuators, coils design, and iron selection. The third book, Thermoactive Foundations for Sustainable Buildings, is the latest monograph in the Technologies for Sustainable Life collection, which explore the interface between engineering and the environmental sustainability agenda. Thermoactive Foundations for Sustainable Buildings presents the latest multi-disciplinary advances in modeling, designing, and monitoring thermo-active foundations (TAFs), also known as thermal or energy piles. TAFs offer innovative and sustainable alternatives to ground-source heat pumps and other conventional heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems to heat and cool commercial and residential buildings in a number of regions throughout the world. The price for each of the three new titles is $79 apiece for ASME members, and $99 each for non-members.

To make better decisions, dont confuse difficulty with urgency

To make better decisions, don’t confuse difficulty with urgency To make better decisions, don’t confuse difficulty with urgency Decisions shape important outcomes, for better or worse.They are the most basic building blocks of life.Daniel Kahneman, Amos Tversky, and other experts have clarified the specific ways in which decision makers are likely to be biased.No amount of deliberation can ever guarantee that you have identified the “right” option.The purpose of a decision is not to find the perfect option but get you an optimal choice that can help you get to the next one.Don’t confuse difficulty with urgencyWhen you are overwhelmed by the urgency, magnitude, and complexity of a choice, you are likely to procrastinate or rush through it.A smarter approach for making difficult decisions is to break down the process into manageable steps that you can tackle over time.Before you rush to make a call on a tough issue, gather the facts (for and against your current assumptions), give yourself time to think through your options (process what you’ve found), and then make the call.“In the end, if you don’ t give yourself the time you feel you need to make a judgment or choice, you will undermine your satisfaction and your subsequent experience. You will regret your decision, even when it is completely unwarranted,”  writes Heidi Halvorson is a motivational psychologist and author of No One Understands You, and What To Do About It.Don’t panic in times of crisis, or when you think your career, life or business is on the line. Keep calm and think through your options.For many people though, impulsive decisions stem simply from getting caught up in what they want right now without thinking ahead, never thinking about the potential consequences or the long-term impact.Take an outsider’s perspectiveMany judgment errors can be eliminated simply by broadening your frame of reference.The quickest, easiest, most effective way to do this is by involving someone who thinks very differently from you.It’s amazing how many poor decisions can be avoided simply by asking one other person for their opinion.A fresh perspective changes everything.An impressive amount of empirical research backs up his observation.Taking an out- sider’s perspective has been shown to reduce decision makers’ overconfidence about their knowledge (Gigerenzer, Hoffrage, Kleinbölting, 1991)Decision makers may also be able to improve their judgments by asking a genuine outsider for his or her view regarding the decision.Searching for evidence that could prove you wrong is a painful process but it works.If you’re wrestling with a difficult decision, consult a friend or colleague who’s been in your situation before.Their insight will likely be significantly more valuable than almost any research.Choice overload is a trapToo many choices exhaust us.And when you have too many scenarios to consider, you are likely to abscond from making a decision altogether.Researcher Barry Schwartz calls this “choice overload.” We tend to avoid making important decisions when we have too many choices.†œAs the number of options increases, the costs, in time and effort, of gathering the information needed to make a good choice also increase,” writes Schwartz.“The level of certainty people have about their choice decreases. And the anticipation that they will regret their choice increases,” says Schwartz.When you reach that level of stress in a decision-making process, you procrastinate, overthink and delay important decisions.Jane Porter of Fast Company explains, “Given the endless options of which route to take, we can sometimes end up going with the more conventional path simply because it’s the easier way to go.”By all means, consider all your options, but narrow your most important options to help you make a better choice in the future.A study from New York University found that “restricting the choice of creative inputs actually enhances creativity.”Embrace the OODA loopMilitary pilots are known to rely on the OODA cycle/loop (observe, orient, decide and act) w hen making decisions.The OODA loop was developed by military strategist and United States Air Force Colonel John Boyd. Boyd applied the concept to the combat operations process, often at the operational level during military campaigns.There is no rush.But every step is calculated based on careful observation.The OODA loop has become an important concept in litigation, business, law enforcement, and military strategy.Consider a fighter pilot being scrambled to shoot down an enemy aircraft.The pilot decides to “get into the sun” above his opponent, and acts by applying control inputs to climb. Back to observation - is the attacker reacting to the change of altitude? Then comes orient: Is the enemy reacting characteristically, or perhaps acting like a noncombatant? Is his plane exhibiting better-than-expected performance?As the combat begins, little time is devoted to orienting unless some new information pertaining to the actual identity or intent of the attacker comes into play. Information cascades in real time, and the pilot does not have time to process it consciously; the pilot reacts as he is trained to, and conscious thought is directed to supervising the flow of action and reaction, continuously repeating the OODA cycle. Simultaneously, the opponent is going through the same cycle.Most of us are under enormous pressure to act quickly, to show that we’re doing something and in control, but it’s important to stop and think every now and then.Inaction (for orientation purposes) is sometimes more important than quick execution. Decision-making is about more than appearing decisive.It’s also about managing the context to achieve an optimal outcome.In any decision-making process, the winner isn’t the one who reacts most quickly, but the one who decides how to act most effectively.Think in years, not daysUse the 10/10/10 rule.“People who overweight the first-order consequences and ignore the effects that the second- and subsequent-order consequen ces will have on their goals, rarely reach their goals.” - Ray DalioEvery decision has an impact on the next one.Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger and many other known figures swear by the 10/10/10 strategy.Ask yourself the following three questions: How will I feel about it in 10 minutes? How will I feel about it in 10 months? How will I feel about it in 10 years? Most of us are conditioned to respond as quickly as possible in many situations, however, it’s vital to consider the long-term consequences of your decisions.Milton Friedman once said, “The best measure of quality thinking is your ability to predict the consequences of your ideas and subsequent actions.”Trust your gut “brain”In the business worlds, you hear a lot of talk about intuition, “trusting your gut.” It’s less simple than you might think.Professor William Duggan believes that there are three different types of intuition:Ordinary intuition is just a feeling, a gut instinct. Expert intuition is snap judgments, when you instantly recognize something familiar, the way a tennis pro knows where the ball will go from the arc and speed of the opponent’s racket. … The third kind, strategic intuition, is not a vague feeling, like ordinary intuition. Strategic intuition is a clear thought. … That flash of insight you had last night might solve a problem that’s be en on your mind for a month. … Expert intuition is always fast, and it only works in familiar situations. Strategic intuition is always slow, and it works for new situations, which is when you need your best ideas. This difference is crucial, because expert intuition can be the enemy of strategic intuition. As you get better at your job, you recognize patterns that let you solve similar problems faster and faster. That’s expert intuition at work. In new situations your brain takes much longer to make enough new connections to find a good answer.A flash of insight happens in only a moment, but it may take weeks for that moment to come. You can’t rush it. But your expert intuition might see something familiar and make a snap judgment too soon. The discipline of strategic intuition requires you recognize when a situation is new and turn off your expert intuition. You must disconnect the old dots, to let new ones connect on their own.Learn to trust your expert intuition (based on experience) when making choices about familiar problems.Build a decision-making system“We don’t always have control over outcomes, but we do have control over our process,” says Amy Summerville, a psychology professor at Miami University.Sometimes you don’t have the luxury of time to extensively consider all the different scenarios and options.What you need in a situation like that is a solid decision-making model.Medics, boxers, footballers, and firefighters think on their feet.In the heat of the moment, they don’t have time for deviating thoughts.The pressure of the moment forces their minds to focus on what needs to be done now.They process information so quickly that “rapid cognition” - decisions that spring from hard thinking based on sound experience - can feel more instinctive than scientific.If they make mistakes, they recover quickly.These are two ways to build a better decision-making system:1. Understand pattern recognitionMost of what we face each day is similar to other scenarios we have already experienced. By understanding this, it’s possible to quickly map a range of previous experiences and their outcomes.Leverage those to arrive at the most viable decision … fast.Over time, as you continue making decisions, your speed and quality will improve.2. Use the 2 minutes ruleFor most decisions, it’s much better to pick an option, and just move on, and the two-minute rule can help.Give yourself a timer that helps you focus on the decision rather than having your mind wander and get distracted.If you had two minutes to make a decision, how will you decide?It doesn’t even have to be two minutes, necessarily, it just has to be a short amount of time, and you have to force yourself to pick a side by the time it runs out.Use this approach if you suck at making small decisions fast (where to eat, which movie to watch, what to eat for dinner etc.).With the pressure of a time limit, you’ll need to get to the heart of the matter faste r and collect the pros and cons quickly, which you might not otherwise do.Key takeawayThe only way you’re going to get better at making smart and better decisions is by practicing making decisions every single day.If you start making this part of your daily routine, you may feel more confident in your actions and decision-making skills.It’ll take time and practice, but once you get the hang of it, you will make an informed decision in any situation.Want to upgrade your decision-making skills?Join my Thinking in Models community today and upgrade your decision-making habits.
