Use a mental model. 10/10/10 seems a good fit. Every time that you’re diluting yourself into a decision ask yourself it that thing would matter in 10 minutes 10 hours 10 days 10 months etc. You can also use this same mental model to evaluate the importance of something in relation to other vectors. Will this impact your tomorrow, next month, next year. Are your finances going to be impacted by this today, next month, next year. Also think about how things will compound. Will this decision have a compounding effect or not. Decisions with compounding effects matter, decisions without compounding effects usually not.
