AmiSight 7/6: Does This Deserve My Energy?

One question I've been asking myself more often lately is: Does this deserve my energy?

One of my weaknesses is that when something upsets me—whether it's a business issue, a difficult conversation, or something personal—I can disappear down the rabbit hole. I'll replay it in my head, analyze every angle, imagine every outcome, and somehow convince myself that thinking about it just a little longer will solve something.

Usually it doesn't.

It just costs me time, energy, and probably a few more gray hairs.

I'm trying to rewire that habit. Instead of asking, "Why did this happen?" I'm trying to ask, "What value am I going to get from continuing to worry about it?"

Some things deserve our full attention. Many don't.

This isn't a switch you flip. For me, it's a lifelong habit I'm trying to change. Some days I catch myself quickly. Other days I don't.

I'm not there yet. But every time I stop and ask myself, "Does this deserve my energy?" I feel like I'm getting a little closer.
