Often when confronted with difficult decisions we believe what we want to believe and the brain opts for speed over accuracy, this can be useful, however, there are certain decisions that require a more rounded approach. It becomes important to evaluate arguments, know your biases and challenge assumptions to dig deeper and strengthen your leadership to identify problems and create solutions when most needed.
