This notion of "busy people don't make good decisions" seems a bit concerning to me. Even if all my decisions are perfect, and I have free time, why wouldn't I invest this time into something productive? In the end, being busy is just showing the ability to manage time, not necessarily decision making skills.
- wombatmobile 5y agoThe author of TFA asserts "busy people don't make good decisions" without citing studies or presenting evidence. You can save a lot of time by ignoring articles like that.
