Satisfice is a verb that means to accept or settle for any available option.
Our word of the day is an alteration of the word ‘satisfy,’ which means ‘to meet expectations or desires.’ But when a person satisfices they settle for something that doesn’t meet expectations. Instead, they accept the best available option.
When we were on the road, we often had only one run-down motel available to us as an option. So we had to satisfice for whatever was there for us.
