Scott Perry introduces the Decision Triangle and Zest Barometer, tools to diagnose why you feel stuck at work. Most of the time it's not that you chose wrong, but that you're executing wrong. He breaks down how to tell the difference in his Creative on Purpose Substack.
All right, I'm gonna close with the framework for making better decisions, or actually, making decisions better. And this is a process that I call the Decision Triangle. If you go to the Creative on Purpose Substack, you can search for Decision Triangle. You'll find a white paper that details the entire thing in just a couple of pages, and you'll find a podcast episode with a video edition as well that will actually walk you through the whole process with examples in less than an hour. But here's the process in a nutshell. So Zespirometer, am I feeling consistently stuck, depleted, exhausted, unenthused about the work that I'm doing? That's a signal that I need to check my Zespirometer. Am I doing the wrong thing or am I doing the thing wrong? It's unlikely that you're doing the wrong thing.
