Don’t Overthink It

Actor Anthony Hopkins was once quoted as saying:

“We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It’s a death trap.”7

Mr. Hopkins is absolutely correct. How many times have you talked yourself out of doing something simply because you began to overthink it and worry about it? Worrying about what might happen never is as effective as measuring what actually happens.

Using the DATA-INSIGHT-ACTION approach, you will never worry about taking on the risk of something new again. So, if you want to reduce turnover, just follow the process and you will reduce turnover. Then you won’t have to worry about it anymore. You know: one less thing.


Key Point

Quantifiably Better is all about using the magic formula of DATA-INSIGHT-ACTION to solve problems. Memorize these three simple words.
