Summary

In this episode, I’m breaking down decision fatigue and why it should never even happen. Most people get tired of making too many choices, but that’s only because they don’t have the right structure in place. Your brain gets tired just like your body does, but the solution is to set things up so you don’t have to keep deciding over and over. I’ll share how to reframe this whole idea and give you preemptive solutions so you never hit that wall of decision fatigue again. Show Notes: [02:09]#1 Decision fatigue is a symptom of poor decision systems. [15:50]#2 High performers don't have to make a ton of decisions. [21:12]#3 Fatigue is a byproduct of friction, not a byproduct of effort.

1:16.5	decision, eventually the human brain gets tired of making all these decisions because it's forced
