A recent study from Columbia University found that we’re bogged down by more than 70 decisions a day. The sheer number of decisions we have to make each day leads to a phenomenon called decision fatigue ,
I agree with this idea. It’s easy to underestimate how many choices we make every day, but once you really think about it, it becomes exhausting. From picking out clothes, to deciding what to eat, to even choosing which email to answer first, all those small decisions build up over time. By the end of the day, I often feel mentally worn out, like my mind has no energy left. I’ve noticed that when I spend the whole day making constant decisions, I’m more likely to make errors or put things off because I feel too drained to think anymore. It’s almost like my brain has completely run out of fuel.
