In decision-making, what are the essential elements to discerning what is truly wise? For the purposes of this discussion, we'll define it as the foresight to produce a predictable and replicable outcome time after time.

Purpose: Discuss how to predict outcomes and replicate outcomes time after time.
Food-for-Thought Only:
• What are rules for producing a specific predictable and replicable outcome?
• Under what conditions or considerations are these rules valid or invalid? What are the parameters, factors, causes? What are the psychological needs being sought? What are the limits to these rules?
• What are the long-term vs short-term consequences? How do people adapt to the consequences? What are the psychological needs being sought? What are the unintended consequences? How does the outcome change over time? What are the unknown factors?
• Is it possible to make a wise decision without the truth?
• What would you do if you knew you could not fail?
