How Transportation Impacts Decision-Making (More Than You Think)

Here is a question most people never ask.

What condition am I in when I make my decisions?

Stress Changes Outcomes

When people arrive rushed, their decisions become:

• Short-term
  
• Defensive
  
• Reactive
  

Even small amounts of stress shift how we evaluate risk and opportunity.

Why Arrival State Matters

Our clients often tell us the biggest difference is not convenience. It is clarity.

When they arrive calm, they:

• Listen more fully
  
• Respond instead of react
  
• Think in longer time horizons
  

That changes negotiations, partnerships, and outcomes.

The Lesson

Transportation is not neutral.

It either supports good decisions or quietly undermines them.
