Almost every day both of my parents would come home from work having nothing but negative things to say about their day. Complain, complain, complain. I got sick of hearing this so I told them - for every bad thing you say about your day, tell me one good thing - otherwise I don't wanna hear any of it. They don't have to be equally weighted, but as long as its roughly 1:1. (ie. Boss gave me sh*t. I had a really tasty cookie!)
So far its worked pretty good, and the negative mood they come home with is either lessened, or it at least doesn't spread over to me as much
edit: and now when I say "I don't wanna hear it," I'm not just being a dick, I'm helping them obeying the "rule"Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)

I'm having a conceptual problem with this question. What is it we're supposed to optimise: input or output or output over input? And difference to whom? I kan kill myself. It is really really a small thing in the grand scheme of things but to me, well, it makes the biggest difference possible.Join MURCs Distributed Computing effort for Rosetta@Home and help fight Alzheimers, Cancer, Mad Cow disease and rising oil prices.

I guess we are looking for small inputs making large positive changes. Not sure I'd call killing yourself a positive change (but I hardly know you ). And really we're looking for the image that comes to mind to represent that concept, which isn't neccessarily an example of it.FT.
