Resource Slack is a term used by behavioral economists indicating the assumption that we'll magically have more free time in the future than we do today. So we say yes to work commitments three months from now that we'd never accept if it were next week - and then discover too late that we still don't have any time for it. Researchers term this the "Yes... D*mn!" effect. Specifically mentioned in his book "Willpower" by Roy F. Baumeister.
