The typical adult spends the equivalent of 23 days a year making decisions – struggling to choose what to have for dinner, what to watch on TV and what to wear.<br /><br />Research of 2,000 adults found the average day sees them make 16 different choices.<br /><br />This leads to an average of one hour and 32 minutes spent deliberating each day, despite 48 per cent admitting the task makes them bored.<br /><br />While 58 per cent admitted they experience ‘decision paralysis’ as they labour over the smallest of things.<br /><br />It also emerged that when it comes to deciding on big debates, Brits have been unable to make a decision on whether the evening meal is called dinner or tea (14 per cent), or if milk goes in tea before or after the water (13 per cent).<br /><br />The study was commissioned by OREO, which has teamed up with former Premier League referee and Gladiators adjudicator, Mark Clattenburg, to launch the Trust the Twist service, he said: “I’m known for making decisions in high pressure tournaments, but everyday choices can often feel intense too."
