Decision fatigue may look like laziness
It is the twin of over-processing,
the impossible loop of *this requires that, and such requires so - for that to..”.
These bleed your surplus to move freely.
Their third kin; scattered activity,
floods the day with trivial noise.
With the complexities of life, these build one upon the other.
Capacity to make wise decisions fade, as does surplus.
If you recognize that, do this to pivot into surplus:
Stop
and give the choice a hard 2-minute ceiling (cuts the over-processing fuel).
Trace
one value you want more of right now (energy, time, kindness).
Observe
the option that adds to that value and simply take it.
It’s like turning on the motor on a boat, speeding out of the gripping pull of a smaller maelstrom.
Reinforce it, list choices that returned energy.
Then tomorrow, double that move.
It builds surplus, which compounds and accumulates - breaking you free.
If you want to strengthen against this, this pack I designed will do the job:
