About this ebook
Decision Fatigue explores the pervasive impact of decision-making exhaustion on our daily lives, particularly its role in impulsive decisions and addictive behaviors. The book delves into how the constant stream of choices in modern society depletes our mental resources, leading to poor judgment and a vulnerability to addictive tendencies. For example, studies have shown that parole boards are more likely to grant parole earlier in the day, before decision fatigue sets in, illustrating its real-world consequences. This book is unique in translating the complex science of psychology and behavioral economics into actionable strategies for readers. It starts by defining decision fatigue and its psychological roots, then progresses to examining its effects on areas like personal finance and health. Chapters focus on the science behind mental energy limitations, the link between depleted willpower and addictive behaviors, and practical techniques for simplifying decision-making to regain control. By understanding how cognitive load affects us, we can begin to restructure our decision-making processes and improve self-regulation.
