As a form of avoiding the Sunk Cost Bias, you can undertake an experiment in which you temporarily stop doing something that’s currently taking up some of your 3 Personal Resources.
- Identify something you’re spending time/money/energy on that you’re not 100% sure is necessary
- For a few days (or weeks), simply stop doing the thing
- See what happens.
You’re almost assuredly routinely doing something for someone else that they don’t actually care about. It’s not a good use of Life Energy to put resources in for no essential benefit, and it spreads you thinner. It’s better to do Less, but Better.
