Have you ever had that niggling feeling in the back of your mind because of something that you know you have to do, but haven't got a plan of handling it? It turns out that this thing actually has a name. It's called the Zeigarnik effect. ​Blume Zeigarnik noticed, at a restaurant in Berlin, that the waiters had an incredible ability to remember customer orders up until the point they were delivered... ​After this point, the waiters couldn't remember the orders, claiming "I remember each order only until it is served". The original hypothesis was that the human mind hates unfinished tasks. But this hypothesis has proven to be not quite accurate. ​A bunch of studies and research followed and the Zeigarnik effect was defined:- When we have stuff that we need to do, but haven't got a plan for doing it, our subconscious mind continually nags our conscious brain to sort it out. Once the plan is formed, the unconscious mind stops the nagging How does this relate to willpower? The Zeigarnik effect causes stress and anxiety, which is one of the primary causes of willpower depletion (negative affect). Resources:- My book list:- https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
