Justifications: Doing Just One More Thing is a Disease
Studies suggest that engaging in a single activity can be a slippery slope for the human brain. A study published in the Journal of Irreproachable Behavior found that 9 out of 10 participants who started with a simple task ended up with 17 tabs open, 3 cats in a row, and a faint sense of desperation.
Other studies have linked "just one more thing" syndrome to:
- Procrastination (a study on productivity found that participants who started with a task ended up with 12 hours of YouTube in the background)
- Caffeine dependence (researchers discovered a correlation between "one more cup" and a 300% increase in anxiety levels)
- Binge-watching Netflix (a survey of 1,000 participants revealed that 8 out of 10 started with a single episode and ended up in a 24-hour marathon)
