Overview

You make dozens of calls a day with no framework beyond gut feeling and a crowded meeting. Some of those calls matter, and the same predictable glitches in human judgment quietly bend them: you anchor on the first number, chase money already spent, and feel sure in exact proportion to how little you know. You don't need a 400-page decision-theory textbook you'll never finish. You need snacks.

Each snack is one move on a single page, with one thing to try on your next real call. Run a premortem before you commit. Widen your options past the first yes-or-no. Notice when confidence is running ahead of evidence. Tell the rare high-stakes decision from the dozen reversible ones that don't deserve the agony. Decision Snacks covers the biases that bend judgment, the science of choosing under uncertainty, and when to trust your gut and when not to.

This is judgment under uncertainty, in bite-sized pieces. Read one a day, or skim the lot and grab the one you need. Either way, skip the doorstop.
