Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I read "thousands affected" and feel a pang, then "hundreds of thousands" and feel that exact same pang
- I burn the same amount of time and worry on a tiny annoyance as I do on something genuinely serious
- One named person with a face and a story wrecks me and I’ll give right away, but a statistic standing for thousands of people in the same plight barely registers
- I keep saying yes to long, low-grade draining commitments because each one feels mild in the moment, and I completely forget to multiply that mild drag by all the months it’ll actually stretch on for.
- With feelings it’s all or nothing for me

- Scope Insensitivity: Why Scale Doesn’t Change Your Feelings
Scope insensitivity is the tendency to react with nearly the same emotional intensity to problems of vastly different scale — to care about 2,000 birds in danger nearly as much as 200,000 birds. Identified by Kahneman and colleagues, it is one of the clearest demonstrations that moral and decision-relevant emotions respond to the image of a problem, not its magnitude. The bias has strong empirical support and has important implications for charitable giving, risk assessment, and resource allocation. - Translate scale into numbers before you respond
