Mastering Decision-Making with ‘Thinking Time’
In this episode of the $4M Strategies™ podcast, host Carl J. Cox speaks with Bob Bedritis of Oswego Private Wealth Management on the art of “Thinking Time.” This structured approach to reflective thinking has the potential to transform decision-making and prevent costly business mistakes. Through the process, Bob shares how leaders can focus their problem-solving efforts, reduce anxiety, and improve team cohesion by asking the right questions at the right time.
Introduction to Thinking Time What if you could rewind time to undo your biggest business mistakes? Bob believes “Thinking Time” is the closest thing to that ability. This practice involves finding a quiet space, asking strategic questions, and letting focused reflection guide your decisions.
How Thinking Time Works
- Identify the Core Issue: Instead of tackling multiple problems, start with one clear question related to your business challenge.
- Reflect with Purpose: With pen and paper, explore every possible answer without filtering. This approach uncovers insights you might otherwise miss.
- Revisit and Refine: After your initial session, revisit and refine your thoughts to clarify your next steps.
The Benefits of Thinking Time Implementing regular “Thinking Time” sessions helps leaders improve clarity, avoid common mistakes, and reduce “dumb tax” costs. This habit creates a framework for strategic decision-making and aligns your team more effectively.
Conclusion
Tune in to this episode to learn how “Thinking Time” can become a powerful tool in your strategic toolkit. Start making decisions that count and avoid repeating mistakes that cost your business.
