today marks the fact that i have not died now for 35 whole years. it is my own personal birthday, and i feel as though i have learned a few things. feel free to cite with proper attribution!
here are some attitudes/actions that usually pay off (for me anyway), and tend to be worth the time/energy investment even when they don't get rewarded:
-patience
-being detail-oriented
-trusting instincts
-taking risks
-managing my time, which=saying "no."
and here are things that i have noticed do not pay off (i.e., are more trouble than they are worth with or without reward):
-paranoia
-worrying
-procrastination
-giving in to guilt
-resentment
