Sometimes very smart people overcomplicate their lives by overthinking things.

Here’s one simple decision you can make every day that will dramatically improve your life.

Does doing X improve the quality of my life (e.g., make me feel good or move me towards my goals)?

If yes, do more.

If no, do less.

Does working in this job improve the quality of my life?

If yes, keep at the job.

If no, make some kind of change (e.g, request different work, transfer, find a new employer, get more training to qualify for a different job, etc.).

Does spending time with X person improve the quality of my life?

If yes, spend more time with person X.

If no, spend less time or no time with person X.

If all you do for the rest of your life is ask yourself this one question and follow through on the answer, you will have a much better life.

Sometimes it’s just that simple.
