great article @mrslauren! I find the same thing for myself, there's only so long I can be in "extrovert" mode before I feel rather drained. Hadn't heard of this study before so it's good to know it's not just me feeling that way!
Ironically, it's sort of like recharging your "vote power". If you "over-exert" it too far, you've gotta give it a break to recharge again. Which is to say, I'm thrilled you're happy with your new slider! :D
Ok, enough... I'm gonna recline back into my shell and "recharge" a bit more! :)
We're on the same page! I like to refer to myself as a turtle sometimes because I tend to retract to my shell whenever I've been overstimulated. That's a wonderful analogy! I havent thought of our voting power like that, but it's very true! After a while we can exert only so much energy or "power" til we have to slow down rest to recharge.
yup... I know exactly the feeling! :)
