It is easier to manage when I can think about the why behind the things I do. For instance, I wrote a handbook this month to help teach government scientists the writing and performing skills they need to make effective presentations to a multi-national non-scientific audience, which I doubt will magically produce another Carl Sagan or Brian Cox, but which should theoretically help raise general scientific awareness and ultimately impact political decisions for the better. Which is probably worth headaches for a month, if this is one of those "would you [blank] if it meant [blank]" party conversation starters.
This is why it is good to write letters to your grandparents. It's hard not to be impressed with yourself when you're explaining your actions to your grandparents.
