Decisions Unveiled: Exploring 'Would You Rather' Scenarios in Business
In this podcast episode, I explored decision-making and accountability in entrepreneurship through "Would You Rather," emphasizing the role of reflection in understanding values and fostering self-awareness. The episode covers a variety of hypothetical scenarios, such as choosing control over delegation in business, prioritizing time or money, and honesty over likability.
I highlighted the importance of timing in being honest, discussed speaking up versus staying silent, and concluded by emphasizing the ongoing value of reflection in guiding decision-making and personal growth. I also reflect on the challenges of balancing honesty and being liked, drawing from personal experiences, character traits, and the evolving perspective that comes with age, ultimately encouraging listeners to engage in these reflective exercises for aligning actions with personal values and making intentional decisions.

In this episode, I talked about the fifth step of the accountability code, commitment—and how it’s different from just taking action or implementing ideas. Implementing is when you practice or try something, like brainstorming or writing, but commitment is when you actually finish the task and can prove it’s done.
