Triage

Triage is one of the Four Pillars of Triology.

In medicine, triage means the sorting of patients and the assigning of resources to them so the maximum benefit is achieved. We can extend the term to all kinds of resources and all any kind of intended benefit. The fact is, your resources are always insufficient to address the needs of the world, even the immediate world around you, so you have to ration them out in such a way that you achieve the greatest possible effect.

The most dramatic example of medical triage is in the battlefield. If there are a hundred wounded soldiers and resources to treat only ten of them, who do you treat? The choice can be gut wrenching. Some soldiers are so badly wounded that they'll probably die anyway. If you devote too much medical care to them, you are taking it away from soldiers who need only a little help to survive. At the other end, some wounded soldiers will probably survive no matter what you do, so you don't want to expend too many resources on them either. Instead, in a situation of limited resources and dire need, you want to direct the bulk of your efforts to the moderately wounded but savable patients who will most benefit from the care. Everyone wants care, but you have to say "No" to most of them. By making the hard choices at an early stage, you maximize the survivors while inevitably making enemies in the process.

The same concept applies in every aspect of your own personal life. No matter what you decide to accomplish, the resources at your disposal are never adequate to the task, so you have parcel them out for the maximum effect. Merely the fact that a need exists does not mean it is wise use of your resources. Whatever you do has to be the most productive use of those resources.

Triage alone does not give you a mission. It cannot tell you what to do with your life (which will be tackled by other aspects of this philosophy), but once you decide on a goal, triage helps you approach it efficiently. If you decide your mission is to save lives, then triage will help you decide how to go about it so the most lives are saved.
