30 - 95% Chance of Better Decisions

30 – 95% Chance of Better Decisions

Today we’re going to be talking about a book called “How to Decide” by Annie Duke. It’s all about thinking like a poker player and making good decisions even when you don’t have all the facts. We’ll be discussing the concept of thinking in percentages instead of black-and-white thinking, reducing errors, and getting away from bias. It’s a great read for anyone looking to make better decisions in their life.

Jill McKinley

I’m Jill from the Northwoods. Professionally, I work in Health IT, where I untangle complex systems and help people use technology more effectively. But at heart, I’m a curious lifelong learner—always exploring how things work, why people grow the way they do, and how even the smallest steps can spark real transformation. That curiosity fuels everything I do, from problem-solving at work to sharing insights through my creative projects.

My journey wasn’t always easy. Growing up, I faced a rough childhood, and books became my lifeline. They introduced me to voices of ancient wisdom, modern psychology, and the natural world around me. Those pages taught me resilience, gave me perspective, and helped me see that wisdom is everywhere—waiting to be noticed, gathered, and shared.
