The document introduces the Cartesian Questions method for making decisions. The method involves asking four questions to examine a decision from different angles: 1) What will happen if I do this? 2) What will happen if I don't do this? 3) What won't happen if I do this? 4) What won't happen if I don't do this? The document provides an example of how the author used this method to evaluate spending money on an expensive mentorship program. Considering the responses to the four questions helped the author determine the best decision was to enroll in the program.

2. Have you ever struggled
with making decisions?

3. Especially big &
scary ones…

4. Fret not!

5. In today’s
episode…

6. I’ll share with you
one unique way…

7. To make great
decisions

8. This will probably
appeal to you…

9. If you take a more
strategic…

10. And logical
approach
in life!

11. This method
is called…

12. The Cartesian
Questions

13. It is named
after
René
Descartes

14. A French philosopher,
mathematician and
scientist…

15. Who lived between
1596 to 1650

16. He is famous for having
made an important
connection…

17. Between geometry
and algebra…

18. Which allowed for the
solving of geometrical
problems…

19. By way of algebraic
equations

20. Did I lose
you there? :)

21. Anyway…

22. I first came across
this methodology…

23. And framework over
10 years ago

24. And in fact
cited the
Cartesian
questions
in my book…

25. Called Powerful
Questions
which I
wrote back in
2005

26. I’ve also used this
several times since…

27. Especially when I had to
make difficult decisions

28. The power & magic of
this technique is…

29. It forces us to examine
from 4 angles…

30. We might not
have thought…

31. Or explored about the
decision to be made

32. Without further
ado…

33. Let me show you the
Cartesian Quadrants…

34. And its 4
questions

35. What will
happen if I
do this?
What will
happen if I
don’t do this?
What won’t
happen if I
do this?
What won’t
happen if I
don’t do this?

36. The top left
question asks…

37. “What will
happen if
I do this?”

38. The top right
question asks…

39. “What will
happen if I
don’t do
this?”

40. The bottom left
question asks…

41. “What won’t
happen if I
do this?”

42. And finally...

43. The bottom right
question asks…

44. “What won’t
happen if I
don’t do
this?”

45. Simple questions
aren’t they?

46. At first
glance…

47. The diagonally opposite
questions may seem…

48. To produce the
same answers…

49. And that’s
perfectly fine

50. By asking a question
in a different way…

51. Our minds can
sometimes elicit…

52. Different answers
and that’s really…

53. The goal of this
entire method…

54. And that is to explore
all possibilities

55. Now let’s check out the 4
questions a bit more…

56. And I’ll share with you
how I used it recently

57. Question #1 is
the easiest…

58. “What will happen
if I do this?”

59. It assists us to clarify
the obvious and…

60. To realize what else
could happen…

61. As a result of making the
decision or change

62. Now onto
question #2…

63. “What will happen if
I don’t do this?”

64. It helps us see why
we may not…

65. Want things to remain
the way they are and…

66. To spot possible
pain points

67. As for
question #3...

68. “What won’t happen
if I do this?”

69. It helps us realize any
possible loss…

70. Resulting from making
the change or decision

71. And finally
question #4…

72. Arguably the
toughest question…

73. “What won’t happen
if I don’t do this?”

74. This helps uncover any
other possibilities...

75. Not answered with
question #1

76. Now let me share an
instance of how I used
these questions

77. In very
early 2017…

78. I was considering
going for…

79. A pricey mentorship
program

80. One that would require
a 5 figure investment

81. With question #1…

82. I came up with 6
points such as…

83. #1 - I’ll be networking
with high income
earners…

84. Who are willing to
invest in themselves

85. #2 - Learn to create high-
converting funnels to…

86. Generate consistent
passive income

87. #3 - Save in
income tax

88. #4 - Possibility of high
ticket masterminds
of my own

89. #5 - Invest 5 figures into
the program & funnel

90. #6 - Invest time into the
program & glean
from the mentor

91. With question #2…

92. I had 4 points
such as…

93. #1 - Life goes on…

94. #2 - Remote possibility of
passive income using
method X

95. #3 - I keep my 5
figures course fee

96. #4 - I lose my opportunity
of learning from
the mentor

97. For questions
#3 & #4

98. I was stumped no matter
how hard I tried to
answer them…

99. Because as far as I’m
concerned in this
instance…

100. Questions #1 & #2 have
already taken care of it

101. Having examined
all 4 questions…

102. And seeing the responses
weighing in 1 direction…

103. I knew there was to
be only 1 outcome…

104. Hence I signed up &
went for the program

105. In your
own life…

106. You can use these
Cartesian Questions…

107. In making a
decision on…

108. Just about anything
you can think of

109. From deciding about
a marathon…

110. To getting into a new
relationship or…

111. Checking out a new
place of worship or…

112. Even deciding a
career change

113. I believe in this
framework enough…

114. I didn’t hesitate using
it together with my
wife for us…

115. To explore a great
opportunity of being
based overseas…

116. Within a year for 1-2 years
for us and our children

117. In closing…

118. I’ve introduced the
Cartesian Questions
to you…

119. And the strength of
this unique method

120. It’s certainly not the only
way to approach…

121. Making strategic
decisions

122. Are you in the midst
of making…

123. A HUGE decision
in your life?

124. If so, why not give these
4 questions a go?

125. If you would like
to go through…

126. The Cartesian method
with me…

127. In making an important
life decision

129. I’ll love to see how
I can assist…

130. And work together
with you! :)
