Failures of perspective in decision-making can be due to aspects of the social utility paradox, but more often result from simple mistakes caused by inadequate thought.

Regardless of the magnitude of the decision, our brains make it hard for us to keep the perspective we need to make good choices.
Exceptionally hard decisions can deplete your energy to the point at which you finally cave in. If you mentally crumble and degenerate into negative thinking, you'll magnify the problem to the point where it can haunt you.
Most of the mistakes in thinking are inadequacies of perception rather than mistakes of logic.
Inability to make decisions is one of the principal reasons executives fail. Deficiency in decision-making ranks much higher than lack of specific knowledge or technical know-how as an indicator of leadership failure.
What passes for optimism is most often the effect of an intellectual error.

When a plan or strategy fails, people are tempted to assume it was the wrong vision. Plans and strategies can always be changed and improved. But vision doesn't change. Visions are simply refined with time.
Studies have shown that 90% of error in thinking is due to error in perception. If you can change your perception, you can change your emotion and this can lead to new ideas.
It's very easy to make certain decisions that affect your life that you have no perspective on.
Failure. It doesn't exist. 'Failure' is just what happens when we lose perspective.
