Daily Productive Sharing 930 - Reversible and Irreversible Decisions
One helpful tip per day:)
Jeff Bezos categorizes decisions based on whether they can be reversed, dividing them into two types:
- Reversible decisions mean the cost of trial and error is low, so decisions should be made quickly.
- Irreversible decisions mean the cost of trial and error is high, so decisions should be made slowly.
- For reversible decisions, the biggest problem is wasting time by not making a decision; for irreversible decisions, the biggest problem is making the wrong decision.
- Even for irreversible decisions, we don't need to wait until we have all the information to make a decision. If we have 70% of the information, that's enough to proceed, because having more information doesn't necessarily benefit the decision-making process.

Jeff Bezos 根据一个决策是否能被逆转,把它们归为两类:
- 可逆转的决策意味着试错成本很低,应该尽快做出决策;
- 不可逆转的决策意味着试错成本很高,应该慢慢做出决策;
- 对于可逆转的决策而言,最大的问题是不做决策而浪费时间;对于不可逆转的决策而言,最大的问题是做出错误的决策;
- 即使对于不可逆转的决策,我们也不需要等到掌握所有信息再做决定,只要掌握了70%就可以做了,因为多出来的这部分信息并不一定对于做出决策有益。
