Decision Fatigue and Overwhelm
Lack of stable focus leads to decision fatigue, as too many stimuli and options sap mental energy. Libet’s timing, Hebb’s reinforcement, and Erickson’s tailored prompts all remain untapped, leaving you drowning in choices without direction.
Heuristics Fall Short
Heuristics like “just decide quickly” ignore cognitive load. Without structured categorization, each choice feels heavy and draining.
Focused Decision-Making with Cognitive Criteria
By assigning decision categories to certain rooms and reinforcing neural patterns that streamline evaluation, you align decisions with stable attention. Personalized cues help you avoid impulsive or hasty judgments, surpassing “just choose fast” heuristics.
