I highlight the role of dysregulation in decision-making and the necessity of accepting the consequences of our choices. By understanding the interplay between prioritization and regulation, I encourage you to reflect on your decision-making processes and embrace a more regulated and grounded approach to prioritization. Takeaways Prioritization is an action, not just a thought process. Dysregulation can make it difficult to prioritize effectively. Accepting the consequences of choices is crucial for prioritization. Everything we prioritize comes with a sacrifice. It's important to recognize that there is no 'right' answer in prioritization. Making decisions is more valuable than seeking the perfect choice. Dysfunctional thinking can lead to paralysis in decision-making. Regulation is key to overcoming prioritization challenges. Understanding the cause and effect of choices can aid in prioritization. Digging deeper into our beliefs can unlock better prioritization strategies. Connect with Jenna Instagram TikTok
