Morning decision fatigue is real: by the time you’ve picked an outfit, packed lunch, and mapped your commute, your brain has already spent its best energy. The fix starts the night before.
The headlights dimmed so gradually we never saw it happen. Now we are driving on a fraction of the light, and our brain pays for it every night. Here is the simple fix.
The sun has always been there. What’s changed is the glass between us and it — a film we’ve never cleaned, wipers we’ve never replaced, and a brain that’s been quietly paying the tax on all of it.

A predictable 45-minute commute is manageable. An unpredictable 25-to-50-minute one is miserable. The stress isn’t the length — it’s the not-knowing. And “leave earlier” doesn’t fix it.
