Everything our bodies do— whether physical or mental— uses energy. Studies have found that many individuals seem to have a daily threshold for making decisions, and an extended period of decision-making can lead to cognitive exhaustion.

Directed by Jolene Tan, narrated by Alexandra Panzer and music by Jeremie Lim.
