Tough choice? Sleep on it!

Feb 17, 2006 13:35

Here's an interesting article for those with a passing interest in psychology. The basic idea is that your subconscious is much better at handling complex decisions than your conscious, so the best way to make a tough decision may really be to "sleep on it". Just ignore the choice for a while, and let your subconscious sort it out, and go with your gut.

For those with some actual psychology background, is this something new, or is it a well established fact that I just haven't read about before?
