The Chess Game of Life: Why Every Move Matters

I want to ask you a question: Do you think the choices you make today will have any impact on your future? If we stop to think about it, most of us would say, "Yes, of course." But we don't actually live that way. We tend to view our days as a series of isolated events-a mishmash of choices that seem totally inconsequential in the moment. We choose what to eat, what to watch, or how to react to a spouse, assuming these small moments vanish as soon as they pass.

Shark Tank star Robert Herjavec says the best Gen Z career advice comes from Mark Cuban-it's that nobody cares if you're 'passionate' | Fortune

"I don't care that you love golf or basketball or AI or cyber, I don't give a shit about any of that. What I want to know is, what are you obsessed with?" Herjavec added to Fortune. "Passion is easy, because passion is a wish, but obsession is an action. Passion doesn't demand anything of you. Obsession requires everything of you."

The Wisdom of Temporal Perspectives in Decision-Making

The answer requires what I call wisdom of temporal perspectives in our decision-making. The wisdom of temporal perspectives involves the temporal appraisal of the current situation, where we take into consideration past factors that give rise to the situation and future consequences that may transpire when solving problems and making decisions. It is a form of transformational wisdom that is particularly important in a complex world of challenges today.
