Sanity is overrated. When I am overwhelmed I cope best when I manage to work on the things that feel most important at the moment. It causes the least cognitive dissonance. Now, the difficult part is to make the things that feel most important roughly congruent with the things that are actually important- that's the art. The good news is that it doesn't have to perfect.



One of the nice things about this vs being employed by someone else, is often the thing that feels the most important probably is!
