In this episode of Journal Jam Sessions, we invite you to explore a major decision you may be facing — something that feels heavy, important, or uncertain. Instead of overthinking or outsourcing your choice, you’ll be guided through two powerful frameworks used by some of the world’s most intentional thinkers.
First, we’ll explore Elon Musk’s First Principles Thinking, a model that helps you strip away assumptions and rebuild your decision from the ground up. Then, we’ll shift into Jeff Bezos’s Regret Minimization Framework, where you’ll step into your future self’s shoes and ask: “What will I regret not doing?”
Through guided audio journaling, you’ll slow down, listen inward, and uncover a clearer path — not the perfect decision, but the one that feels right for you. Let’s begin.
