Episode 63: Decision Fatigue

As adults we make countless decisions each day. We make decisions about what to wear, how to parent, what to eat, what to drink, where to go, where to not go, what we want to learn, how we will spend our spare time, how to show up for our partners.significant others, how we can be better humans,what we want to do in 5 years and some of this is enough just in itself.

But then you throw a pandemic on top of it.

Life right now with everything that is going on has us constantly evaluating the level of risk in order to just do those things. Then you have to calculate/master mind how you’re going to make those things happen because our entire lives have changed our work schedules have changed school schedules have changed our childcare options have changed so in order to make one simple appointment whether for work or to see a doctor there’s so much thought and decision making that needs to go into literally every single little thing that you want to do

In order to schedule one appointment for work or home right now I have to literally stop everything else and look at my calendar like I am trying to schedule a world take over. FOR JUST ONE APPOINTMENT. It is is exhausting. It is draining and I am trying my best to protect my calendar, my sanity, and not have to rely on everyone else to cover for me!

I know that it takes a village but relying on a village during a pandemic is another level.

But there here are a few things that we can do to help us in scheduling our days without losing our minds.

But this does take some decision making so get ready.

1. Evaluate what it is that we feel good about doing.

2. The next thing that you need to evaluate is the way in which it needs to happen.
3. Then we need to evaluate the people that are going to be at any given event .
Just as pre-pandemic you need to hold your time as sacred, You need to decide how you want to spend your time do you make time for yourself do you make time for just your family!
