Decision fatigue is clearly an important factor in this collective mental breakdown that we're experiencing. But, in my opinion, the biggest factor is the overstimulation of our brains, not just decision, but all the incredibly irrelevant information that we're subjected at all times. It's interesting to see this overstimulation in an era that thinks so little.

What are some ways we can reduce this stimulation in our everyday lives?

Noting to myself 1. Reduce the amount of decisions Ex: reduce to-do list from 20 to 10, say no to all irrelevant projects, social gatherings. 2. Automate processes Ex: be like Matt, wear the same shirt /don't waste your time on choosing outfit./ 3. Make most important decisions first thing in the morning Note to myself: let's decide on the issues of my life that need to be fixed rather than pondering whether it is appropriate to like the post of my schoolmates(with whom I lost contact 7 years ago.

I had the same work a few years ago.. Now I understand why even deciding what to eat next would put my in an existential crisis.

I’m a single mother of a disabled child, run my own household, and am a small business owner of a few businesses. Because I have to make so many decisions throughout the day that can definitely impact others, I eliminate some of my daily minor decisions. Such as: I eat the same exact thing for breakfast, I take my coffee the same exact way (black), I have the same three things to pick from at work to eat for lunch, I utilize smart devices set on a specific schedule for lights/charging/cleaning, and I often wear what looks like the same exact thing everyday (mostly fitted black monochrome clothing.) Not needing to waste time and energy thinking about minor things like these gives me more energy to focus on other more important things. It’s also very important for me to take a quick 5-7 minute break in playing a dorky Snapchat Bitmoji game to break up the monotony and give myself a laugh-which helps me refocus on tasks at hand. Sometimes, I secretly do a bunch of quick jumping jacks in the bathroom to burn up some physical energy. It’s important to energize yourself with natural-good feelings and laughter every once in awhile. 😂😊

Reading The Untethered Soul may help

If removing clothing choices seems daunting to you, start off small. I've started leaving clean socks and t-shirts out for myself in advance of certain days, so I'm out and clothed easier. Obviously if you have some big, corporate event you should be putting more effort into it, but for normal days? You know yourself better than anyone else and what clothes will work for you productively.

Living with a narcissistic parent has mentally exhausted me drained any form of happiness from my soul.

I'm tired because I don't have much to do but nothing seems fun and interesting too me anymore either and no I'm not depressed either.

What I learned in middle school, prepping your clothes and books the night before will give my mind time to start-up for the day. Not draining mental energy that I'll need for the rest of the day.

That hit me differently. A week ago I noticed that I was taking (no exagerattion) 1-2 HOURS to choose what outfit I would wear in a day. I always took so long choosing that at the end I was so exhausted that I didnt even wanna leave the house anymore LOL. Now what I started doing is putting the first outfit I think of and EVEN if I dont really like it I just go do other things, like brushing my teeth, putting contact lenses, doing my hair, etc. And then when I look back at the mirror I end up realising that I actually like the outfit I'm wearing, or at least I dont give it that much thought: "Ah, its ok. It doesnt really matter". This has been helping me a lot .

Really cool book - must read in my opinion: Thinking fast and slow (pretty sure lot of you guys might heard of it). Talking 'bout fatigue etc. will be explained using the two systems of thinking (psy.) we have and use. The more our cognitive energy drains over time - like matt explains - the more dificult it actually gets to stop us from making impulsive descisions.

Motivation is temporary, discipline is forever

I’ve always wondered how the decision fatigue research lines up with folks who do their best / creative work later in the day (night owls).

WOW, this gave me a whole new perspective and I feel like am a different person now. Much appreciation Matt!

Noticed this as well. The more options we have, the less satisfied we are if we let the choices paralyze us. We need to practice more awareness in our decisions - for they shape how we will live short term and long term. The challenge is, we don't know how to be satisfied deeply anymore, or we've been programmed to want it all.

Mix decision fatigue with alcohol and this is the problem with weekends 😂

Little things that you share is helping me in a big way. Thanks Matt.

I've been becoming more aware of this again lately, starting with /any/ social media rips into my ability to effectively do anything. Trying to push it to afternoon best I can. Love the vid Matt!

Honestly Matt, I have reached a point in my life where I know what I want and no one changes that for me. I make a list and stick to it.

One of my favorite videos from you!! Wow

I like how your videos are so smooth, perfect & satisfying. It's calming me down

so true by how simple it is to be clear minded. love it

When we’re poor in making decisions we can easily get into people pleasing mode. To help me make better decisions I prioritise my goals for the day and be clear on my goals for the week. That way when people ask for my help, I’m clear on what I can and can’t do and I communicate that clearly. Thanks for today’s video
