A tool for wiser choices

A good life is the result of good decisions. However, we seldom accord the business of decision-making the careful attention it requires. When faced with a major decision, we lack rituals and procedures. We typically procrastinate, lean on the nearest person or rush headlong into an unexamined solution. Fortunately, decision-making is a skill that can be learnt. The chief enemy of wise decision-making is a lack of sufficient perspectives on a problem.

The Decision Dice invites us to think through an issue from twelve distinct angles: Enemy, Gut, Death, Caution, Courage, Parent, Friend, Eternity, Child, Success, Billionaire and WTF. As we try out, juggle with and then synthesise these perspectives, our sense of possibility will expand, and a tolerable way forward will gradually emerge from our present confusion.

Adam O. ★★★★★

I used these for a week of small choices first, and the weight of the dice in my hand actually makes me pause instead of just going with whatever's fastest. The real value showed up when I rolled through a job offer decision twice and got the same answer, which forced me to admit I already knew.

Scarlett I. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about handing a real decision over to dice, but framing the options out loud before each roll forced me to actually name what I wanted. The physical act of rolling for something as small as whether to text back a friend made the choice feel lighter, not reckless.

Adam ★★★★★

I rolled these for a job offer versus staying put, and the structure forced me to actually weigh what I was afraid of losing. It's a tool for wiser choices, not a magic answer, but it slowed my thinking down enough to see the obvious call.
