I can remember that exhausting things like moving with friend sometimes have more fun in it than boring party XY. To apply Pareto on psychology is a brave thing because there are some easier mechanisms you can take into account to get better solutions. So in general people suffer from negative experience quite more than they are brought up by positive ones that should have the same Impact. e.g. "You suck!" vs. "I like you". If you keep that in mind and try to reshape negative experiences into ones that you actively can learn from, you will feel instantly much better. Maybe you get 95% with only 1% effort. If you start playing psychology with 80/20 rules or draw the line between Job][Good Life you should not be astonished if you end with one the 0.01% faces. Btw: after four days of drinking and probably no sleep everybody is exhausted and needs a break. Adam get some rest! Otherwise you really becoming too German. I already see you as the next Nietzsche..... The world isn't that bad. There is the crappy advertising claim

To apply Pareto on psychology is a brave thing because there are some easier mechanisms you can take into account to get better solutions.

So in general people suffer from negative experience quite more than they are brought up by positive ones that should have the same Impact.

e.g.

“You suck!” vs. “I like you”.

If you keep that in mind and try to reshape negative experiences into ones that you actively can learn from, you will feel instantly much better. Maybe you get 95% with only 1% effort.

If you start playing psychology with 80/20 rules or draw the line between Job][Good Life you should not be astonished if you end with one the 0.01% faces.
