Today I’ll share a recent post involving what’s called the 40/70 rule by Colin Powell.

The short version of the post:
The 40/70 rule is basing decisions on knowing information between 40-70% of the information needed.
Below the 40% you’re risking making brash decisions which can harm you and/or others
Past 70% and you’re risking impatience as well as someone else taking control of the situation
The link regards business, but this rule applies to daily life as well
Some quick examples of the 40/70 rule on daily life:
Movie trailers
Video game videos
Covers and back of books
The backs of various entertainment cases
Sale ads
Various click bait material
People arguing/debating
Facebook posts
