Decisions and Time: The Unseen Rewards

July 18, 2023

Today's efforts rarely show immediate results. Often, we need to wait weeks, months, or years to see the benefits from our recent efforts. This is why we need to develop the skill of delayed gratification.

Every action we take involves decision-making. But sometimes, decisions don't turn out as we expect.

It's odd, but even correct decisions can lead to negative outcomes. However, in the long term, the right decision always reveals itself.

We should trust that the right decision, will eventually pay off, even if it takes longer than expected.

This is why it's important to learn how to make better decisions, based on logic and values. Emotional decisions often lead us towards short-term rewards at the expense of a better future.
