Helping you make better decisions
Welcome to the Resolve blog. Here, I write about the dynamics of decision-making and how we can learn to make better decisions.
The Resolve Blog is here to help you overcome the difficulty of decision-making. Cognitive biases – our systems of thought – including mental models, as well as our friends, all affect the choices we make. By understanding the influences of these mental behaviours, we have a chance to use them correctly.
Every week, new articles will highlight ways to help you improve your decisions. Inspiration is vital aspect of leadership, which is an area I will be writing about.
I’m also sending out a weekly newsletter called Your Weekly Resolve. Within this email, I share advice and insights to help you unravel the complexities of human decision-making. Thus, helping you improve the outcome of your decisions.

Helping you make better decisions
In a world of irrational behaviour, Your Weekly Resolve will help you with making better decisions. Sign up here and every Tuesday, I’ll share valuable insights on the complex art of decision-making.
Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don’t.

Make Better Decision’s
Every day we make 35,000 decisions. From walking to listening, to assessing our surroundings, we don’t stop making decisions. We resolve to survive and live a life that is safe and easy for us to manage.
Most of those decisions happen without us even being aware we’re making them – and in some instances that’s great – and others that’s bad. In the Resolve blog, I will break down those instances of impulsive decision-making. Then, by understanding how they’ve become established, we can preserve the good ones and replace the bad ones.
I should declare that I don’t have all the answers, but I’m curious enough to want to learn and improve. Therefore, I’m hoping you will join me and discuss your insights as I share mine.
You can also find me on Twitter and if you want to email me, send a note to darren@resolve.blog.
Thanks,
Darren Matthews
