This post made it all sink in for me.

I'd always wondered why, even though I followed my curiosity down a rabbit hole for some years, I end up so exhausted. It really does have to do with having a higher return on energy than what I put in. To feel gratified for what I did. To feel appreciated and rewarded. So important to us.

I can't wait for the full essay on this. Great stuff. Just subscribed.

I love this concept of "ROE" (Return on Energy). I've learned, over the years, to invest more time on high "ROE" relationships and stay away from the energy-sucking ones!
