Everything we do is either helping us live a better life or not
Once I started thinking this way, evaluating everything I am doing based on its worth towards furthering my life, I've started to make better decisions - and feel more confident and at peace with my actions.

我們所做的一切都在幫助我們過上更好的生活，或者沒有
一旦我開始這樣思考，根據它對推動我的生活的價值來評估我所做的一切，我開始做出更好的決定 - 並且對我的行動感到更自信和平靜。
當我開始這樣思考時，事情開始改變了。
一些任務，最初我認為它們是乏味且不值得的，比如洗衣服、打掃房間、整理照片等等，我覺得這些事情不值得一做，好像它們不會直接推向更高的目標，所以它們是浪費時間的。但事實證明，任何能讓你的生活變得更好的事情都具有內在價值。
所以我再也不覺得做這些簡單的事情浪費時間了。
另一方面，我也意識到，其他一些事情，雖然在當下可能感覺很好，但實際上對我的長期幸福沒有幫助，因為它們沒有直接對我宏偉目標作出貢獻。
舉例來說，隨意與陌生人聊天發短信。
在大多數情況下，除非這個人是特別的，並且將為你開啟新的大門，否則談論時事、他們來自哪裡、他們做什麼、他們喜歡什麼等等，對你的生活沒有好處。你沒有努力學習新事物，也沒有讓自己處於更好的境地。對你來說沒有新的機會，也沒有改善必要的技能。事實上，你做的只是浪費你寶貴的生命。說實話，相當悲哀。
一旦我開始這樣思考，根據它對推動我的生活的價值來評估我所做的一切，我開始做出更好的決定 - 並且對我的行動感到更自信和平靜。
這是一種正念的實踐 - 意識到你正在做什麼以及它對你想要過的生活的價值。
一旦你採用了這種心態，你就可以開始減少壓力和擔憂，因為一旦你意識到你正在做的事情正在幫助你的未來，那麼你就只能放鬆下來，專注於你正在做的事情。
是不清楚確定你正在做的事情的價值才會引起對未來的擔憂。如果你明確地定義了，你就可以放鬆下來，專注於眼前。你不再需要擔心未來，因為那個任務將在以後的某個時間點出現。
當你知道自己正在做對未來有害的事情時，焦慮就會開始積聚。這是你需要改變正在做的事情的一個信號！
無論如何，這就是我今天的建議。希望對你有所幫助。
評估並確定你正在做的事情的價值，讓自己放鬆並對自己充滿信心，或者轉而做更好的事情。
祝你有美好的一天！

Once I started to think this way, things started to change.
Some tasks, which I initially thought were tedious and not worthwhile, such as doing laundry, cleaning your room, organizing your photos, etc., I thought beneath me. Like they are not pushing towards some higher end directly, and so they were a waste of time. But turns out, anything that puts your life into a better situation carries with it intrinsic value.
So I no longer feel like my time is wasted doing simple things like this.
And on the other hand, other things, I have come to realize, while they may feel good in the moment, they are actually detrimental towards my long-term wellbeing, because they offer no direct contribution towards my grand goals.
An example of this would be texting random people. Just chatting.
In most cases, unless the person is special and will unlock new doors for you, talking about current affairs, where they are from, what do they do, what do they like, and so on, offers no benefit towards your life. You are not pushing yourself to learning new things and positioning yourself into a better situation. There are no new opportunities available to you nor are you improving a needed skill. In fact you are doing little but wasting your precious life. Quite sad, to be honest.
Once I started thinking this way, evaluating everything I am doing based on its worth towards furthering my life, I've started to make better decisions - and feel more confident and at peace with my actions.
It's a kind of mindful practice - to be aware of what you are doing and its value towards the life you want to live.
Once you adopt this mindset, you can begin to stress and worry less, because once you identify that what you are doing in the moment is helping your future, well, then there is nothing to do but relax and focus on what you are doing.
It is not clearing identifying the value of what you are doing that causes stress about the future. If you clear define, you can relax and settle in into the moment. You no longer have to fret about the future, because that task will come at a later date.
It is when you are doing something you know is bad for your future that anxiety will start to build up. This is a sign you need to switch what you are doing!
Anyways, that is my advice for today. I hope it helps.
Evaluate and identify the worth of what you are doing to allow yourself to relax and be confident in yourself, or to switch to a better thing.
Have a wonderful day!
Warm Regards,
Jacob Pugmire
