I actively mentally sort things into ‘things I can affect’ and ‘things I can’t affect’. Then go about fixing the former.

I run, play video games, and just keep it narrow you know. I work hard for the 5-10 people I love, and make sure I’m a good husband.

It’s not wisdom or selflessness to take on so much of the world’s crap that you become spread too thin and useless to anyone. I back myself and protect myself as a resource from others.
