Embed from Getty Images Yom Kippur is coming quickly – this Tuesday night and Wednesday (Oct 11-12, 2016). I usually make a Shabbat dinner for my kids, pack lunches for the next day and prepare snacks so I have little to do with food on the day. I also prepare clothes for everyone and whatever …

Decision fatigue is a thing. We have only so much koach (strength), and then it’s “Whatever. Sure, it’s fine.” Especially as we’re making important decisions, we need to be on the ball. Decision fatigue – exhaustion from the hundreds of little decisions we make each day in addition to the big ones – can impair …
