The overall aim was to explore approaches to decision-making and how decisions connect to our sense of self. The following themes were covered with students in Grades 9 and 11 over three sessions:
- What are some of the major decisions we make in life, such as choosing subjects, colleges, or careers?
- How should decision-making work, and how does it actually work in practice?
- What is the difference between a conscious decision and a passive one?
- What are key decision-making terms, such as decision fatigue, analysis paralysis, and the paradox of choice?
- What tools can help us manage time and energy when making decisions, such as the Urgent-Important Matrix, time budgeting, and the Circle of Control?
Of the tools introduced, the Circle of Control had a particularly strong impact. Many students shared that they had realised how much of their time and energy was spent on matters outside their control.
