I think there is something to this. I believe humans are inertial driven machines opting to invest more time and energy in actions that result in positive outcomes. But for every example of an action I can think of where past history is indicative or future success (say going to the gym for example), I can also think of an action where a person feels diminishing returns on the results to the point where they get sick of it. (eating the same food for every meal) I think there has to be some sort of classification of actions. Actions where excessive repetition leads to disillusion and actions where excessive repetition leads to addiction.
