Here's a simple question to ask before jumping into "all the work" you have to do:

Ukrainians have undated the Amnesty International logo and incorporated the Russian pro-war Zvastika symbol as outrage mounts over the international human rights organisation’s shameful criticism of Ukraine’s efforts to defend itself against Vladimir Putin’s genocidal invasion
When I worked at Amnesty we took time on detailed reports putting events in context. Amnesty’s release on Ukraine today does not. The result suggests Ukraine bears more responsibility for people killed by Russian strikes than Russia itself. It is both bizarre and misleading.
Instead of asking yourself, "What should I do first?"
Try asking, "What should I neglect first?"
Trim, edit, cull. Make space for better performance.

"Different meanings can be assigned to the same events.
Look for evidence of how the world is encouraging you, and you will find it.
Look for evidence of how the world is burdening you, and you will find it.
Choose an explanation that empowers you."
