I came across this interesting term in the book called "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahnemann. The human brain has limited resources and some 'things' take more of that resource, the depletion of that resource is called Ego Depletion. The interesting thing about this, is that, when we do a task that we don't like doing, then it consumes more energy vis-a-vis doing a task that we like doing. The other takeaway without energy left in your brain, your judgement will be skewed for the worse. In that book, the author mentions multiple amazing experiments that were done to prove that thesis about 'ego depletion'.
