Definitely a “woah bruh 420 blaze it” kind of thought this eve, but I’m wondering if there is a philosophy, lifestyle, or technique that addresses this:

I often wish for some way of making anything worth doing, therefore removing the need to judge whether something is worth doing.

Many hours of my “free time” outside of work are a struggle of meta-evaluation re: “time investment” and feel it would be so much more peaceful to outgrow this mindset

Edit: Thank you all for sharing your thoughts and advice. Seeing both simple truths and nuanced anecdotes makes for wonderful reading, and I’m glad I put this question out there ✨

    Value is a personal and arbitrary decision. You are free to value anything you want as much as you want. Everyone has this freedom.

    This means that everything can “be worth doing” to anyone who chooses to value it highly enough compared to the cost of doing it.

    Peace.
