A few years ago, my wife and I were in Maryland. While walking down the sidewalk, we stumbled upon a Restoration Hardware. We had never seen one before. Was it a hardware store? Was it a DIY supply store? Whatever it was, it looked intriguing…Large entry doors, beautiful decor, the works. We just had to check it out.
Once inside, what we found was an incredibly limited yet high quality selection of everything from bedding to furniture to accessories for every room in the house. But what was really cool was this: Instead of the plethora of paint shades and samples, Restoration Hardware had 32 carefully-selected colors… Not 320, not 3200.
How much stress could we eliminate from our lives if we weren’t overwhelmed with hundreds of low-quality choices and instead presented with a few high-value decisions to make each day?
