Better Decisions Faster

Unshakable Confidence When You Need It Most

“Your ultimate guide to confidence and courage—one decision at a time.”

—Mel Robbins, New York Times bestselling author of The Five-Second Rule and The High 5 Habit

Foreword by Marshall Goldsmith

Make better decisions faster with the Head + Heart = Hands Equation

The average adult makes more than 35,000 decisions in a day. Most are mundane, but there are a handful that separate businesses that boom or bust, careers that succeed or fail, relationships that make it or don’t, and lives of happiness or hopelessness.

These most valuable decisions (MVDs) represent the gap between a green-light life and a red-light life.

In more than fifteen years as an NFL and NBA executive, Paul Epstein saw firsthand how, when faced with such an overwhelming number of decisions, even elite performers can rush to bad judgments or become paralyzed by indecision.

In Better Decisions Faster, he draws from the green-light wisdom of Fortune 500 CEOs, Olympians, Shark Tankentrepreneurs, world-record holders, Ivy League professors, and Navy SEALs to reveal a revolutionary new system for maximally efficient and confident decision-making.

The solve is the Head + Heart = Hands Equation—Head (mindset) + Heart (authenticity) = Hands (action)—which taps into the three most primal and powerful aspects of our humanity to tackle such MVDs as:

  • Strategy: A or B?
  • Job: stay or go?
  • Deal: do it or don’t?
  • Team: hire or fire?
  • Financial: invest or pass?
  • Time: spend on X or Y?
  • Relationship: in or out?

You’re just moments away from making these decisions better, faster, and with unshakable confidence. The playbook is in your hands.
