The fix for that nightly stall isn't more willpower — it's making the decision once, in advance, back when there's actually room to make it well.Start by noticing which decision in your week keeps landing at the worst possible moment — dinner, bedtime, whatever it is — and settle it ahead of time, on a calmer day. It doesn't need to be complicated. One short, standing rule written down and kept somewhere visible is enough: a simple answer that's already waiting instead of a question you have to face fresh every single time.That's the whole shift. One recurring flashpoint decided in advance is one less thing pulling at attention that's already stretched thin by evening — and the moment that frees up goes to the people standing in front of you instead of to the decision itself.Follow 7 Good Minutes for new episodes every day.Watch 7 Good Minutes on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@7goodminutes7 Good Minutes is presented by OCEANSCAPE and published by The Extraordinary Network.
