Completely agreed - I think of these as "decision hyperparameters"[1]. Some of the most important ones I think are: awareness of expertise level, adequate time, considered alternatives, slept well, not too hungry, aware of general cognitive biases. I feel like running through this brief checklist (and checking it twice!) for important decisions has helped me immensely. --- [1] https://alexpetralia.github.io/2017/11/27/NL-2017-11-27.html https://alexpetralia.github.io/2017/11/27/NL-2017-11-27.html
