Samenvatting:

You already know what to do. So why can't you do it?You've made the pros-and-cons list - twice. You've read the articles. You lie awake re-running the same decision and wake up exactly where you left it. The job you've outgrown. The habit you keep restarting. The door you keep meaning to open or finally close. The problem was never that you don't know. The problem is the weight that lands the instant you try to decide.That weight has a name: Decision Drag - and it isn't a flaw in your character. It's how every human brain is built. Sunk cost, loss aversion, the fear of getting it wrong: a small committee of forces that freeze your hand over the button. You can't out-willpower them. But you can out-engineer them.Written by a continuous-improvement engineer who spent two decades removing waste from real factory floors, Decision Drag turns the same proven toolkit on the hardest part of being human - the decision itself. At its heart is The Kaizen Loop, a five-stage method that turns stuck, emotional decisions into steps you can actually take: - SEE - look at your real life honestly, then cut what drains you- FIND - trace the problem to its root, without blaming yourself- SHRINK - make the change so small it cannot fail- CHECK - catch the drift early, before the crash- KEEP - lock in what works, then turn the Loop againThis is not another book about trying harder, finding your why, or motivation that evaporates by day nine. It's a calm, humane system for anyone living with decision fatigue, overthinking, indecision, and analysis paralysis - and it works on the whole of your life, from your career and money to your health, relationships, and the invisible load you carry in your head.You are not the problem. The process is - and processes can be fixed.If you're tired of being told to try harder, start here.
