Angela Merkel — Consider all your options

Making fast, on-the-fly calls is the only way to accomplish your goals quickly, right?

匆匆忙忙地打幾通簡短的電話是迅速達成目標的唯一手段，對嗎？

Well, not really. In fact, rushing into decisions can seriously trip you up and further delay your progress.

其實不對。實際上，匆忙做決定會嚴重影響你做正確判斷，從而阻礙你進步。

It's better to follow the example of the German Chancellor. "For me it's important I deliberate all options ... running through scenarios, and not simply theoretical experiments in my head," she told the BBC.

我們最好向德國總理學習一下。默克爾對BBC說：“對我來說，慎重權衡所有的選擇是很重要的……我會模擬實際情況，而非簡單運用頭腦中的理論經驗。”

According to Inc., it's almost always better to avoid impulsive decisions and instead base your choice on observing what's going on around you, as that will give you "the power to weigh those observations against your instincts."

根據Inc.，我們最好避免沖動決策，應該通過觀察周圍的情況做出決定，這樣可以幫助你“權衡利弊、抵制沖動”。
