A quality decision is one that is executed well because your choice is aligned with your purpose. We must have processes that help us remember to focus on the essential work that is making the biggest impact. We often fall back into bad habits and lose sight of our focus.
Hi, I’m Karl Staib. The creator of the Dig to Fly method and author of Bring Gratitude. I struggled for years with making quality decisions because I didn’t have a system in place. Once I developed routines that worked for my personality type that’s when my career took off.

I struggled with depression, money issues, being fired from a great job, Cancer, relationships, career. etc. If you are currently struggling thru something right now, I probably struggled at one time to overcome it as well. My main issue was that I didn’t prepare properly. I would launch into a project and just wing it as I would go. I didn’t have a framework to think through different kinds of decisions. I got decent results, but my results could have been so much better if I had a better systems in place.
Now I go through a checklist of questions before I start any major project. It’s this mental map that keeps my anxiety and stress manageable through each stage of a project. Making better decisions faster about developing your own systems that help you improve your mindset, but also prepare yourself for anything that comes your way.
Are you struggling with a major decision?
Do you want a co-pilot to help guide you through the stormy weather.
Your Co-pilot
Would you like someone who has been through the business trenches and knows how to go from chaos to clarity in less than 3 months? Then we should set up a time to talk. You have to review your current process for making important decisions, eliminate what isn’t working and help you tackle whatever challenges that occur with your transition. When you can find gratitude in a challenge you are farther ahead than 90% of other people.
What mental shifts do you need to make to improve your career and life?
When you are ready to make a big change in your life it should always start with working on your mindset. I made the mistake of listening to the stories and limiting beliefs that played in my head as I tried to make the leap.
The best way to prepare for your next big change is to get your thoughts and emotions onboard, otherwise you won’t succeed. It’s starts with truly appreciating the challenge and all the possible nuances that will occur. That’s why I have all my clients start with a system that helps them get a deeper understanding of how they make decisions and figure out where there gaps are, so they can close them. When you practice certain mindset techniques you are rewiring your neural pathways, which builds the foundation you need to the next phase a success. You don’t want to start the next phase of your life and go crawling back to the one that caused you so much stress and tension

You could use someone to help you see your blind spots. As your co-pilot I’m there to make sure all the instruments are reading correctly and that the captain (That’s You!) of the aircraft isn’t going off course. It’s this mutual respect that they have for each other that saves lives. I help my clients create a plan that helps them soar above the turbulence.
I had one client who got a promotion at work and had no idea how to lead people. She was caring, kind and smart, but she didn’t know how to get the best out of her people. I’m going to share a secret. It starts with understanding yourself and building your self awareness, so you can make quality decisions. Then you focus on developing systems that fit your personality.

“I had sessions with other experts that felt unproductive because they merely revisited personal growth exercises I’d previously learned about in books. Karl focused instead on helping me identify the action steps around my short-term and long-term goals. As someone who thrives on organization and forward momentum, I appreciated working with someone who focuses on results.” Lori Lori Deschene of Tiny Buddha
