#3801: How to Think 3 Moves Ahead

Most people make decisions based on what's right in front of them. They see an opportunity, take the immediate win, and move on. But a decision that looks smart today can create expensive consequences tomorrow. The real question isn't just whether your next move is good. It's where that move puts you three moves from now.

In this masterclass, I break down why you shouldn't judge a decision by its first outcome, why the most obvious move isn't always the best one, and how to think through the entire sequence before you act. If you want to make better decisions, protect yourself from bad deals, and position yourself for long-term success, you need to learn to think beyond the move in front of you.
