The root cause.

The root cause of all misery is letting the last-minute mind take decisions.

The last-minute mind is not equipped to take decisions; it does not understand resource allocation, opportunity costs, or delayed gratification.

It can only work well in constraints. Constraints designed by the deep mind, by the writing mind.

The more decision taking power we take away from the last minute mind and the more constraints we place on it, the happier we will be.
