Practicing Good Judgment: Adventurer's Guide to Making Critical Decisions

"It seemed like a good idea at the time" is one of my favorite sayings because I have used it more than I would like to admit. Said in another way, "Good judgment is learned through experience and experience is gained from bad judgment." You can re-invent the wheel or choose to learn from others who have made good and bad choices. Practicing good judgment is a skill that can be developed if you have the right tools.
