When you wake up in the morning, you shouldn't have to think through which one of twenty options you're going to have for breakfast. Same for dinner. It's a waste of time and only causes you to burn through energy that could otherwise be spent on your more creative and demanding pursuits.

If you're wasting mental energy on breakfast or lunch, you're setting yourself up for diet failure later in the day. There's been research on willpower and two things are clear: We use willpower to make decisions, focus, and be creative. We only have a limited amount of daily willpower.

That's because you've depleted your willpower and cognitive capacity. You've spent all day making decisions at work and handling regular life issues, and now your ability to make quality decisions has diminished.

If you can standardize all the "non-creative" components of your day (like meals), you can save all your thinking for other things. For at least 80% of the time, eat a habitual, standard diet. Use the remaining 20% to be a little more adventurous with recipes, social meals, or dining out.
