Your pace is too slow because your decisions are

Speed isn’t about chaos—it’s about decisiveness. Here’s how to build it.

Let’s keep it real:

You’re not falling behind because you’re lazy.
You’re falling behind because you hesitate.

You second-guess.
You over-research.
You run scenarios in your head for days before pulling the trigger.

By the time you make one decision, someone else already made ten.
Even if half were wrong—they’re still ahead.

Here’s what no one tells you:

Speed wins.
Not perfection.
Not more information.
Not overplanning.

And speed comes from one thing—decisiveness.

Start practicing it like a skill:

  • Set a timer: 5 minutes max to make small decisions

  • Default to action: if both options are decent, pick and move

  • Stop waiting for “certainty”—it’s an illusion

The faster you decide, the faster you get feedback.
The faster you get feedback, the faster you adjust.
The faster you adjust, the faster you win.

It’s not about being reckless.
It’s about being unavailable for delay.

So here’s your question:

What’s one decision you’ve been dragging your feet on all week?

Pick it.
Make it.
Move.
