Learn to make decisions under pressure from "summary" of Thinking in Bets by Annie Duke

Making decisions under pressure is a skill that can be developed through practice and experience. When we are faced with high-pressure situations, our cognitive abilities can be compromised, leading to suboptimal decision-making. By learning to make decisions under pressure, we can improve our ability to think clearly and rationally in stressful situations. One way to improve our decision-making under pressure is to embrace uncertainty. In high-pressure situations, it can be tempting to seek out certainty and avoid ambiguity. However, the reality is that most decisions are made in uncertain conditions, and it is important to be comfortable with this ambiguity. By acknowledging the uncertainty inherent in decision-making, we can make more informed and rational choices. Another key aspect of making decisions under pressure is being able to adapt to new information. In high-pressure situations, things can change rapidly, and it is essential to be flexible and open to new information. By remaining adaptable and willing to adjust our decisions based on new data, we can make more effective choices in high-pressure situations. It is also important to recognize the role of emotions in decision-making under pressure. Emotions can cloud our judgment and lead us to make impulsive decisions. By learning to regulate our emotions and maintain a calm and rational mindset in high-pressure situations, we can make better decisions. Finally, developing a decision-making process can help us make more effective choices under pressure. By breaking down the decision-making process into smaller steps and considering the potential outcomes of each choice, we can make more informed decisions. Additionally, seeking feedback from others can provide valuable insights and help us make more objective decisions.
