Tiredness as an Emotion

Tiredness is often seen as a lack of energy, but it can also be considered an emotion. Our brain uses tiredness as a signal to avoid investing energy in activities with a high workload or uncertain success. It discourages us from wasting energy on long-term, questionable endeavors. Understanding tiredness as an emotion helps us recognize when our body is signaling a perceived waste of energy and prompts us to question why we feel tired in certain scenarios.
