There are two necessary reactions when receiving new
information.
1. Awareness that the
information received is the beginning of a new decision
cycle and could be critical information.
2.
Separating the information from a very probable emotional
reaction.
Why are these keys so important? If the information
received is not recognized as “New Information” you will not
be alerted to the need to reassess your plan of action.
Therefore, no action will be the default action. “No Action”
can be a very consequential “Action”.
Why is it important to separate
“New Information” from
“Emotional Reaction”
If they are combined, instead of dealing with the facts you
will be dealing with your emotions, thereby making emotional
decisions, not logical ones.
