Thanks to RSS, the average blogger has no social obligation to publish posts in a timely manner, unless they promise to do so. So there’s no need for the average blogger to start their posts with phrases like, “I haven’t written for a while because <insert excuse here>”, because 1) no one but your close friends really care why you haven’t written (and they will be looking elsewhere for this kind of information), and 2) for each day that you fail to publish one of your super interesting posts, there are a million other bloggers/microbloggers who do, and therefore, your blog’s faithful readers have more than enough reading material to satisfy their social web needs. My point here is: don’t apologize, relax, and publish good quality posts whenever you can (and this is enough reason for low publishing frequency).
This wasn’t my excuse in disguise.
Let’s talk about decision making.
Free will and decision making
If we believe in free will, then we need to accept that decision making is an important part of being human. Our decisions, big or small, determine if we will reach our short- and long-term goals. Therefore, decision making deserves much more thought and time than we are usually ready to allocate to it.
Luckily, the world and our bodies are robust enough to endure many bad decisions. But the better decisions we make, the better the quality of our life.
In what follows, I plan to write of the heuristics that I have found to be useful in my own experience with making decisions — which should explain the preaching tone of the writing
