When do you make your best decisions, at the end of a day crammed with meetings and calls? Or early in the morning after a day of rest?<\/p>\n\n
My Twitter stream was filled last week with teachers and professors grading papers\u2014and by that I mean teachers and professors complaining about grading papers.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hard work, and I don\u2019t mean to slight anyone, but I feel sorry for the students whose papers were last in the stack. Making call after call is bound to affect the quality of their teachers\u2019 decisions. It\u2019s true for all of us.<\/p>\n
When our physical energy slumps, so does the quality of our decisions. But here\u2019s what we sometimes forget: Making decisions actually drains our physical energy. It becomes a vicious cycle.<\/p>\n\t\t
