Avoid making decisions based on emotions from "summary" of Getting to Yes by Roger Fisher,William Ury

When emotions are high, logic often takes a backseat. Making decisions when emotions are running high can lead to choices that may not be in our best interest in the long run. Emotions can cloud our judgment and prevent us from considering all possible options objectively. It is important to recognize when emotions are influencing our decision-making process and take steps to mitigate their impact. By taking a step back and allowing ourselves to cool off before making a decision, we can ensure that our choices are based on reason rather than fleeting emotions. In negotiations, emotions can be especially tricky. It is easy to get caught up in the heat of the moment and make decisions that we may later regret. By staying calm and collected during negotiations, we can focus on the facts at hand and work towards a solution that benefits all parties involved. In order to avoid making decisions based on emotions, it is crucial to separate the people from the problem. By focusing on the problem at hand rather than the individuals involved, we can approach negotiations with a clear mind and work towards a mutually beneficial outcome.
  1. The key to making sound decisions is to approach them with a clear and rational mindset. By setting aside our emotions and focusing on the facts, we can ensure that our choices are based on logic rather than fleeting feelings.
