Meta-Work: How Do We Know We’re Making the Right Choices‪?‬ Two Friends Talking About Things

    • Philosophy

Nate and Jason are back in Portland, which means we no longer have excuses not to record new episodes! 😅

How do people make choices? What mental models, frameworks, and other factors go into making those choices. And more importantly, _where the hell do those mental models come from_?

In this episode, Nate and Jason talk about how they built their own decision-making frameworks by borrowing ideas from business, doing concentrated exercises to help them identify what they’re especially good at, and doing the meta-work to decide what they really care about in the first place.
