Badge - Fucks

I don't know how old you are, but I've been increasingly concluding that I only have a certain amount of emotional energy and am much more deliberate about who or what I spend it on.

I used to spend a lot of time worrying about why someone hadn't been in touch, or whether I'd done a piece of work well enough, or whether I'd behaved in the 'right' way at some sort of event.

But if you think about it, most of these things really don't matter.  They might seem like it at the time, but I bet you in a couple of years you won't even remember what it was.

So when you find yourself worrying about something, take a pause and think 'do I really need to spend one of my hard-earned fucks on this?

The answer is probably 'no'.

Nowhere does this apply more, than to your job.  It is, after all, just a job.

So get this badge and when you're doing that meaningless plop, it'll help you remember that's all it is.
