Everyone has to make countless choices in day-to-day situations that range from basic necessities to luxury items. All of these options don’t make much difference, as the number of decisions goes on, can result in leaving an individual feeling exhausted, and leads to decision fatigue that becomes the biggest challenge to becoming productive and having a relaxed mind within a world filled with an endless amount of information and digital distractions.
Understanding Decision Fatigue
→ It usually occurs when the brain becomes exhausted while making multiple decisions, as it causes individuals to lose concentration, act impulsively, and be unable to make thoughtful choices. 
→ It mostly revolves around making small decisions that can reduce cognitive ability for making substantial choices, as can be seen in the dressing preferences of Steve Jobs and Barack Obama, who wore similar clothes to save their mental strength for other important tasks. 
How Does Decision Fatigue Impact Your Mind and Behavior?
→ It can result in procrastination, which can lead to a delay in fulfilling prior commitments.
→ Reacting immediately without thinking about the consequences for choosing the easiest solution.
→ Avoid making decisions that cause increased stress and losing opportunities.
→ It can lead to feeling overwhelmed or frustrated over minor issues. 
Practical Tips to Combat Decision Fatigue
→ Creating a structured routine helps to decrease the countless number of choices that individuals make, such as during morning hours, setting time for waking up, stretching, drinking water to keep hydrated, and reading something lighter for 15 minutes.
→ Spending less time on choosing clothes by making a capsule wardrobe that contains those clothes according to one’s preference and wearing them more frequently to use that energy for achieving other goals.
→ Developing a limited number of ideas for the basic tasks, such as meal planning for hectic days, app subscriptions, and social networking events by an automated system.
→ It can be beneficial to make important decisions in the early morning, as mental capacity increases and helps to make clearer judgments.
→ It is also necessary to make decisions mindful with calm mindset and avoid perfectionist tendencies. 
Conclusion
The availability of too different options or decisions to make can overwhelm or empower the individual as it can decreases self control, heighten tension and impact productivity. It can be seen as each decision consumes an individual's mental energy, as energy level drops, leading to less meaningful and reckless choices. Simplifying daily decisions can secure concentration and mental strength for essential decisions and innovative thinking. It can be achieved by establishing structured routines, giving importance to necessary decisions, limiting options, making important decisions during morning hours, practicing mindfulness techniques, and automating repetitive tasks.
