Decision Fatigue Calculator

Drop your daily conscious-decision count, trivial/meaningful split, scheduled-routine %, mental-rest blocks, alcohol/wk, and average sleep. Calculator surfaces effective decisions after routine, rest recovery, alcohol + sleep penalties, and the specific hour of the day your decision quality crashes — calibrated against Bargh & Vohs / Vohs & Heatherton glucose-willpower research and Walker sleep literature.
