Apparently, when you study the chemistry of the brain, you can use up willpower. The mental effort to do an unpleasant task is drained in the doing. And if you stack unpleasantness, it gets harder to do it.
Apparently blood sugar to the brain helps us do better on difficult things.
Also, if you practice discipline, it gets easier to do chores.
Some of these findings are somewhat obvious, but it's interesting to see what pops out when you tinker with experiments in weird ways.
