The decision before.

There's a hierarchy of decisions at play when we are in the middle of any game, including the games that matter - our work, our relationships, our health.

You might think the current decision determines where you go.

But it's the decision before that led to this moment. And the decision before that, which led to the previous one.

Once you see the decision hierarchy, it can either feel like a trap or be liberating.

To gain agency, we need to focus on the decisions higher up in the chain. But for that, we need to let go of some of our current choices.
