Here is the list of show stoppers that hinders decision making.
- Fear - Fear of Uncertainty, Fear of Left Behind, Fear of Depletion
- Greed - Greediness of wanting more than what we deserve for
- Lack of Information - Not doing proper research
- Blind of subtleness - Making decisions based on obvious things but later paying price due to magnification of subtle things which were never considered.
- Lack of Empathy - Lack of empathy and sympathy towards the information and people.
- Closed Mindedness and Opinionated - Deeply ingrained in one's own perspective. Perspectives help us to make better decisions, the better we see the better we have clear "vision" followed by a good reasoning.
- Poor Listening - It is by observation we learn a lot. Listening is a great aid to make good observation.
- Trying to Exhibit Force - Forcing things to happen rather than making the environment conducive for decision making
- Treating others' ideas based on their title (but not by the merit of information). Sometimes (or most of the times), ideas/perspectives come from unexpected ones.
- Lack of Curiosity - How does a child listen to a story teller? Absolutely curious. We were there as a child, we know how we felt.
- Not Showing Genuine Interest - Not showing genuine interest blocks effective communication. When a collective decision has to be made, showing interest in others makes a big impact.
