Between options pose this question: What is the best story?
“Life is a form of self storytelling. We’re continually retelling ourselves our life story, but very few people think of themselves as authors of their story, not mere subjects. People with extraordinary high-agency realize this early in life and start maximizing the interestingness of their life story.
Having a fascinating life story is not just an exercise in vanity — it has a real impact on your success in life. You’ll have an easier time attracting friends as well as life and business partners. It’ll also make it much easier to sell yourself or your products. It has a kind of compounding halo effect
So next time you’re faced with a tough decision, consider the path that makes a more interesting story. If it turned out to be the wrong decision to have made, you’d at least be fun at dinner parties.” - Amjad Masad
