daily word - emotional budget

Do you have money to invest? If you do, then you will find more investment opportunities available than you can respond to so you have to be selective in the way you allocate your resources. Even if you don’t have money for investment, you have a budget for emotional investment, and this too is a finite supply. You don’t want to go broke emotionally, so you have to be selective in your emotional investments. There are plenty of opportunities for outrage and injustices in the world and you can’t do justice to all of them at once. Spend your emotional budget wisely on that which is yours to do.
