What's up guys? Welcome back to build. And today I want to talk about decision debt.

So going into 2025, I like to think about like what are the themes of my years, right?

And like the themes of how do I want to kick off the year? How do I want this year to feel? What do I want to do different than last year?

And something I was thinking about a lot is just what big decisions do I need to make

or what decisions in general do I need to make or do I want to get off my plate? I definitely ended

24 making some decisions that were really tough for me to make. And though they were tough and

though they haven't completely panned out yet, I'm still really glad I made them because I just was like,

waiting any longer is not going to make anything better.

It really got me thinking about this concept of making decisions quickly and how the faster

you make decisions, really the more progress you make.

And so I really started thinking about it.

And I was really thinking, like, you know what it is, is that a lot of what I was doing in Q4 was paying

off some decision debt from like Q3 I think a lot of people have heard of financial debt

they've heard of tech debt there's like a multiple different kinds of debt in business but

I actually think this one is the most treacherous type of debt right because really what it is

it's the cost of like an

unmade or delayed decision. What happens is it just continues to build. Like you have big decision

after big decision after big decision that you're confronted with or things that are constraints

or things that are going wrong or things that are problems. And you just put those things off.

And what you do is when you put those things off, you continue to accumulate decision debt.

And I was thinking about that and I was thinking about how I want to start off 2025 with zero decision debt.

I stacked a lot of stuff for Q1.
