1432 || the final "rules of thumb" for a good life

from Make Your Damn Bed

Some rules of thumb we review today include: "Is there a better use of my time?""Stress vs. Reward Analysis""It's okay to not finish a book you were reading for pleasure." "The braggers razor: the more someone brags, the less you should believe them.""Writing knife block: If struggling to understand something, write it down.""Opinions are earned, not owed." "Under-promise, and over-deliver."Rules of thumb should be applied in context. No rule should be applied universally! They're there to make life more rewarding and easier, so use them as a tool to help reduce over-analyzing things to death.
