Summary

Making decisions can be a mentally exhausting and draining experience, depleting our mental energy and self-control. Research suggests that the act of decision making itself exhausts our subsequent self-control. To make better decisions, consider starting your day by making important choices, using a decision matrix to visualize possible outcomes, soliciting feedback with caution, being aware of cognitive biases, trusting your heart if your head knows what to do, interviewing your future self, putting options on a par, and embracing uncertainty. By applying these strategies, you can reduce the pressure surrounding decisions and make choices that align with your values and goals.
