    Rational Decisions, AI Boost

    In this episode of "3 minutes max. – Human Skills in the Age of AI," Andre Ottlik and his AI co-host Jules explore the uniquely human challenge of making decisions. While decisions seem naturally straightforward for AI like Jules, humans often grapple with rational versus gut-based choices—a fascinating aspect given that Homo Sapiens have a relatively recent history with rational decision-making, aided by language and writing. Andre shares insights from a 2022 study in Psychological Science which suggests that consciously made, rational decisions tend to bring greater satisfaction in the long run. This leads us to the first actionable tip: tackle a current decision by crafting a Pro and Con list and consider a solid Plan B. Whether contemplating a career move or another significant life choice, assessing risks and alternatives is crucial. The second tip takes a tech-friendly approach by encouraging you to create a mind map focused on your long-term goals. By mapping out your ambitions across various life domains — such as Career, Health, and Finances — you gain clarity and direction that informs current decisions. Utilize tools like MindMeister and enjoy supportive AI interactions with chatbots like ChatGPT, or even engage Andre for a deeper dive through his extensive coaching experience. Get ready for a decision-making journey that combines lists, plans, and big-picture thinking. Stay tuned for Friday's episode where they'll delve into intuitive, gut-based decision strategies. Tune in to learn more about intuition, decision-making, and the balance between your head and gut, as Andre and Jules lead you through this insightful journey.

    Decisions: AI Aided Choices

    Join Andre Ottlik and his AI co-host Jules in the "3 minutes max." podcast as they dive into the fascinating world of decision-making in the age of AI. Did you know you make between 20,000 to 35,000 decisions daily, with the vast majority happening unconsciously? In this lively episode, Andre and Jules explore how you can bring more awareness into your decision-making process, helping you be more in control rather than reactive. In this episode, you'll discover two actionable tips to increase awareness of your unconscious decision patterns. First, throughout the day, notice which decisions you make automatically and which ones require more thought. In the evening, take just two minutes to reflect on these moments. Which small decisions came easily, and which ones made you ponder? Second, identify a decision you've been unconsciously putting off. It could be something as simple as choosing between two tasks. Consider using a decision-making app like "DecidApp" for Android or "Decide Now!" for iOS to help clarify your choices with guided questions. By focusing on these small steps, you can enhance your decision-making process, making it more deliberate and less automatic.

Starting with a positive note and using specific examples sets the tone for constructive feedback. It's important to remember that how feedback is received varies from person to person, depending on several factors.

    Accepting Feedback With AI

    In this episode of "3 minutes max.," Andre Ottlik and his AI co-host Jules delve into the art of accepting feedback without the emotional turmoil. Andre shares insights into how those who actively listen to feedback tend to develop more effectively over time, as opposed to those who defensively block it. Avoiding such defensiveness is crucial as it encourages a steady flow of constructive feedback, nourishing personal and team growth. Tip one for today is to pause and breathe when receiving feedback. Listen attentively without diving headfirst into defensiveness. Don't hesitate to ask clarifying questions like, "Can you give me an example?" or "What would have been different for you?" Additionally, if possible, sleep on it; perspective improves with a bit of rest. In a unique twist, tip two integrates AI: Use tools like ChatGPT to help process your reaction to feedback. By writing down the feedback and asking questions like "Why does this trigger me?" you allow AI to assist in distinguishing emotions from the facts, constructing a route towards positively channeling the insights gained. Discover how accepting feedback doesn’t necessarily mean agreement, but rather opens up new perspectives. Join us on Friday as we explore giving effective feedback.
