I’ve been using a technique called Ink Thinking that I read about recently. What I find quite good about it is the prediction of the outcome along with the reflection. By having to commit on paper to what you believe will happen, I find it helps to then ignore the ‘what if?’ as you’ve settled on the most realistic outcome already.

I’ve worked with my mentor recently on decisiveness and after a few sessions focus I worked out, I don’t really have any issue with decisiveness at all. I know what to do or the right action to take usually fair quickly. It’s taking the action that’s the problem. It’s a push and pull of being assertive once the decision is made vs being passive, avoiding taking action, even though I’ve made the decision, I don’t act because I fear I may be wrong
