OM DENNE EPISODE
If you're like me, you consume a lot of information. Many people do that through platforms like social media, but I tend to consume a lot through reading. Recently, I came across a phrase that really stood out: decision hoarding. What is decision hoarding? It's when you hold onto decisions instead of letting them flow. You keep your hands on everything, becoming the bottleneck in your business, your team, or even your family. It often means others have to come to you for every final decision. The problem is, when you're not there, everything stops. People become paralyzed because they haven't been given the tools, knowledge, or authority to move forward on their own. Then you return and feel frustrated, wondering why nothing got done. This happens more often than people realize. Decision hoarding usually means you haven't fully empowered others. You haven't provided clear processes, expectations, or the confidence for them to act independently. But empowerment also means allowing mistakes. I once brought someone new onto my team who struggled to make decisions because their previous environment was highly micromanaged. That kind of experience can create hesitation and even fear around decision-making. So I focus on giving people the tools, clarity, and permission to act — knowing that mistakes are part of growth. Many people who hoard decisions are actually trying to be perfect. They wait, overthink, and delay instead of making clear, timely choices. Fast decision-makers, on the other hand, understand that progress matters more than perfection. I saw this growing up as well. My mother tended to hold control over decisions, and when she didn't have that control, she would channel her energy elsewhere. It was a reminder of how deeply ingrained this pattern can be. But decision hoarding is paralyzing — for you and for everyone around you. It slows progress, creates frustration, and limits growth. If you look at nature, it doesn't operate this way. Nature follows systems and flows based on what's needed — air, water, fire, earth. There's a natural responsiveness and balance. We can learn from that. In our own lives, sometimes what's needed is clarity, communication, research, or simply space. Sometimes you need to step back and let others step forward. And sometimes, you just need to pause — stop over-relying on external input and think for yourself. There's a lot of power in allowing your own mind to work, to create, and to solve problems. So ask yourself: are you holding onto decisions that should be released? --- Follow & Let's Get in Touch! Official
