Abstract

Excessive focus on minimalism in non-altruistic use of time and resources is dangerous and can lead to burnout and reduced impact. Individuals should focus on prioritizing activities that maximize their well-being and impact, rather than attempting to minimize non-altruistic activities. Prioritizing involves identifying actions that have disproportionately higher impact potential and focusing efforts on those activities, while accepting trade-offs in less important areas. Sustainable and effective giving require maintaining a balance between self-care, prioritization, and maximization. – AI-generated abstract.
