Besides living long enough to witness mistakes that took a decade or longer to play out, what I do is use the cognitive bias codex by designhacks.co.

My heuristic is:

Is the subject matter important?

If yes, is the cost of being wrong high?

If yes, am I displaying any signs of cognitive bias? (Consult the cognitive bias codex)

If yes, how do I mitigate the bias?

Once done, has my outlook changed?

What action should I take?

This is close to Sociocracy’s “Is it good enough for now and safe enough to try?”
