Decision fatigue is something everyone experiments in their life, especially during periods of high emotional or intellectual distress. In order to cut out its energy loses, your brain reaches a point where it simply refuses to make decisions. It?s that moment when you start answering most questions with “I don?t care”. That doesn’t really mean that you don’t care<\/em>, but it is actually a way of saying “I refuse or I simply can’t make a decision about that right now”. The more decisions you need to make, the more likely you are to become tired of deciding. Eventually, you either give up or make hasty decisions.<\/p>\n

How to beat decision fatigue<\/h2>\n

If you don?t take any action when you begin to not caring<\/em> about small things, it might end up affecting your work life and productivity. The inability of making decisions or often taking the wrong ones can have a dramatic impact over your professional and personal life. Therefore, this article comes to the rescue by offering some advice that will hopefully help you overcome decision fatigue. <\/p>\n

1. Establish routines<\/h3>\n

Routine helps you get rid of small decisions by turning them into automatism. By setting small things on autopilot, you will have more time and energy for important decisions. <\/p>\n

For the sake of the argument, let?s say your brain is capable of making 100 decisions a day (although in reality, we make thousands). Once that limit reached, it simply refuses to work adequately. Why use your limited decision-making capabilities with simple choices such as what to have for breakfast, what to wear at work, what kind of exercises you should do and so on? <\/p>\n

All these things can simply be decided once and transformed into habits. It is the reason why people like Steve Jobs always wear the same outfit<\/a>, and why Obama, Oprah and other important leaders have strict daily routines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. Make binary decisions<\/h3>\n

The productivity guide book<\/a> “Smarter Faster Better: The Secrets of Being Productive in Life and Business<\/em>” proves the power of binary decisions. Instead of wasting time with multiple possibilities, the most efficient way of taking decisions is to reduce everything to just two options.<\/p>\n
