The scarcity principle sees life as holding a limited amount of satisfying objects or experiences, and if one does not gobble them all down the same year, or stuff them into three weeks of living, they will be gone.
The day-at-a-time way of living sees that one cannot be in two places at once or do everything there is to do.
Setting priorities or doing only the amount of activity that is comfortable has no bearing on what will be available to me in the future.
All it really means is that by the time the future comes, I will be able to be in it in the same way I am in the moment, and that I will not have burnt myself out with anxiety and worry.
Living a day at a time is the only way I can enjoy what lies around me, what I already have.
The desire for imaginary benefits often involves the loss of present blessings ~ Aesop
