Been wondering what my goals are in life and a good friend recommended "Give Yourself a Nudge" by Ralph L. Keeney. I just started reading it but can tell it's going to be good!

I'm only in chapter 2, but the author points out that it's difficult to make good decisions if we don't know what we're trying to get out of them. Most people start by creating a few alternatives and then choose the least bad one. It's better to focus on what you do want and then pursue that!

He describes this as being value focused instead of alternative focused. I think spending time up front figuring out your values is what's different here. If you don't know your values, how can you possibly make the best decision?
