Practices that may help
- Conservation of Resources Theory, Made Practical
Stevan Hobfoll’s conservation of resources (COR) theory holds that stress occurs when valued resources are threatened, lost, or fail to return after investment. The theory predicts that people with more resources are more resilient and that resource loss is disproportionately more powerful than resource gain — which explains why the same stressor hits harder when you’re already depleted. Building, protecting, and strategically deploying resources is the practical application. - Invest resources in gain-loops when conditions allow
Resources beget resources — when you have surplus, invest it where it compounds.
Conservation of Resources Theory, Made Practical - Audit your current resource base
Take stock of where you stand in each resource category — objects, conditions, characteristics, and energies — before the next stressor arrives.
Conservation of Resources Theory, Made Practical - Prioritize protecting primary resources above pursuing secondary ones
When under threat, guard your most foundational resources first — health, key relationships, income — even at the cost of secondary gains.

List all time, space, information, and energy already present in or around the problem — solutions often hide there.
