Because sometimes I make sporadic life-changing decisions on impulse, I am now experimenting with what I call "the decision timer".

Basically, if I come up with another "genius" idea that I want to do "right now!" and that will change my life to a more or less significant extent, I put it in my decision timer which lasts one month.

One month is, under normal conditions, not long enough for the environment to change drastically or for someone to steal and implement my idea or some other thing of the sort to happen, but a long enough period for me to cool off and rethink it a dozen times.

I can't change my character but I can certainly manage some aspects of it better.

TIMER ON.
