Cognitive minimalism
Cognitive minimalism is the conscious reduction of unnecessary stimuli, decisions and information in order to regain clarity of attention.
Definition
It's not about living without information, but about protecting cognitive resources from excess. Cognitive minimalism helps reduce chaos, decision fatigue, and attention fragmentation. It is especially useful when a person has many open loops, tasks and sources of pressure.
