Here’s why you don’t want to leave important decisions to the end of the day…
Each morning, we wake up with a finite amount of willpower (which some call the ‘active self’).
With every decision that we make throughout the day, and with all the stressors we face, this willpower (our ‘active self’) is depleted bit by bit.
By the time we get to the evening, especially if it’s been a highly stressful day, or we’re had to make a lot of complex decisions, our cup is usually near empty.
This could lead to:
– difficulty making the right decisions,
– struggling to weigh up trade-offs between two or more options,
– impulse buying, or
–other avoidance behaviors.
So, where possible, save the complex and important decisions to the following morning when your cup of willpower has been restored, your battery recharged and your ‘active self’ replenished.
