I used to be excessively diligent. I noticed in others how unhappy perfectionists were. They were never happy with much as nothing ever really measures up to perfection. Our culture promotes not wasting your life, living up to your potential, etc. These people can often find themselves miserable as the pursuit is endless until their death.
No one ever lives up to their standards and they often feel they cannot live up to their own standards.

It depends on what you mean by how well I'm using my life.
Am I living my dreams and being the best person I can be? Yes I am so I would say a 10.
Am I acting like the rest of the world just going through the motions of life and working day in and day out at a job they hate, slowly day after day watching my life drain slowly away to death? No if thats the answer I woudl be a 1.

The opposite of "wasteful" is "diligent"? Interesting.
I'm at an 8 or 9.

I don't scale my life because I don't believe in standards. I am a PERSONALITY and an INDIVIDUAL, there's no one else like me, so no one could ever make up a system to judge me or my life.
I suggest you think the same, it's easier to live then.
