The Dichotomy of Choice

The Dichotomy of Choice refers to the idea that having some choices is beneficial, but too many choices can be overwhelming and lead to decision fatigue, regret, or dissatisfaction. When options are limited, making a decision is easier and more satisfying. However, an abundance of choices can create anxiety, make the decision-making process longer, and sometimes cause you to second-guess your selection. This concept highlights the balance needed when making decisions and suggests that simplifying options can lead to better satisfaction with your choices.
