Japanese man lives a “no-decision” life, eating the same, dressing the same for 15 years, reveals unexpected benefits
Every day, people are faced with a series of decisions. For more than a decade, Go Kita, a 38-year-old man from Japan, has been following a fixed diet and lifestyle to reduce the amount of brain power he uses to make decisions. He says it helps him stay mentally sharp. His “decision-free” life has become a hot topic on social media in recent times.
According to a study by the University of Cambridge in the UK. Having too many choices can lead to “decision fatigue,” which affects decision-making, leading to procrastination or making irrational decisions.
According to a report by Japanese television station TBS, Kita found that when he entered the workforce 15 years ago, he felt tired of making decisions in his daily work, so he decided to reduce the number of things he had to think about in his life.
Kita’s “no-decision” approach to life was inspired by Ichiro Suzuki. A former Japanese baseball star. “I happened to see that Ichiro Suzuki ate curry every morning. I was amazed that someone would eat the same thing every morning,” he said. For years, he kept his breakfast, exercise time,สมัคร ufabet and post-game routine the same. Which helped him stay focused on training and competing, and he went on to hit 200 batters in 10 consecutive seasons.
Inspired by Ichiro, Kita has created his own schedule. Eating beans and ramen for breakfast every day, chicken breast for lunch, and pork cutlet with bean sprouts for dinner. Along with a fixed amount of supplements. These three meals have barely changed for the past 15 years. And he eats them every day, wearing the same shirt and pants. Kita even doesn’t have to decide when to cut his nails. “I have a weekly nail-cutting day,” he says, “so I don’t have to think about whether they’re too long. Whether I need to cut them, or think about the last time I cut them.”
Kita said that over the past 15 years. Reducing the decision-making in daily life has reduced the mental burden. The mind is clearer at work and decision-making is more effective.
