What are your first principles (rules you've developed) in your life? - eviltoast

People who make me feel like crap or worse off then when I encountered them consistently are written off and out of my life

Doesn’t matter if its family, nobody is entitled to your attention and suffering and it does nobody any real good for you to succumb to the inevitable dysfunction it creates in your life and relationships and also material conditions.

    Fair. This one usually pertains to lower risk decisions tbh. Stuff like what to have for dinner or how to spend the day off. And specifically when you otherwise wouldn’t have a preference. But quite often doing nothing is the greater risk in high stakes situations too. In any case, better to have your ice cream even if it’s not your favorite flavor, than none at all. That is, as long as you’re actually going to eat it.
