Ever heard of flipping a coin to make a decision? It’s not about chance... it’s about clarity
The Science Behind It
When you're torn between two options and toss a coin, something powerful happens.
Ever heard of flipping a coin to make a decision?
It’s not about chance... it’s about clarity.
As the coin spins, your limbic system (your emotional brain) overrides your prefrontal cortex - the part responsible for overthinking, perfectionism, and analysis paralysis.
In that brief moment, your brain taps into your interoceptive awareness, its ability to sense what your body truly wants.
You suddenly feel a pull toward one option.
You’re not guessing... you’re accessing clarity at speed.
It’s not superstition.
It’s how your brain is wired to break indecision.
Try This Today:
1️⃣ Got a decision to make? Grab a coin.
2️⃣ Assign an option to each side.
3️⃣ Flip it and notice what side you hope it lands on before it hits your hand.
That’s the answer you were avoiding.
The coin didn’t decide - you did. It just helped you listen.
Want to stop second-guessing yourself and start making bold, confident decisions -fast?
This is just one of many high-performance tools I teach leaders who are done wasting time in analysis paralysis.
