Definitely not pooping on day 2 like a bitch though
I'm going to have to disagree on this one. After 3 days you aren't going to have a soft, enjoyable poo. You're going to be passing a small turd-child through a hole that's not meant to stretch that wide.
Yep, it would be at least 13 kurecks.
Sure, but it only gets harder the longer it goes on. At 3 days it's worth it to expel that turd-child

Couldn't agree more
A good night's sleep.
Not good at this one
I agree, this is very important to me. My fiancee and I have come to the realization that sleeping in the same bed made both of us sleep worse. The solution was to sleep in separate beds and it's been great. I do miss some parts of it, of course, but the benefits have been worth it
My 2yo son sleeps ON TOP OF ME
I kinda miss when my kids were small enough to do that.
I used to get a good night's sleep regularly, and now I have cats, so that's right out the window. Those pesky chaps want to play at 4AM. But they are cute.
I'm gonna go with something simple, pizza. It always always makes my day better, no matter what is going on in my life or what I'm feeling.
It's also good when you don't want to poop for three days.

A proper backup strategy.
Including testing that you can actually restore from your backups.
If you don't test your backups, you don't have backups
Doing small joyful things. Like enjoying nice sunlight, smell of fresh cut lawn, that cool looking cloud, first sip of water in the morning, and every little thing that makes up the experience of you. Once you start appreciating small things, you start to see they are plentiful and makes day nicer, and build up different mindset to follow :)
Investing in your health.
Learning about healthy eating and exercise.
I know all about those, but it doesn't stop me eating crisps and sitting on my arse
Shh no
That can be depressing as hell depending on your mindset of the day, so not "Always" worth-it
Trying.
I know it sounds cliché and... Well... Wanky, but it's true.
Trying and failing will always feel better than just giving up.
Like someone? Say something. They could humilate you and literally kick you in the balls and in 5 years i guarantee you'll regret it less than if you say nothing. (This is not an excuse to be creepy. If they say NO, then hear the NO. Shit happens. Move on.)
Have an idea for something cool? Try to make it reality. The sad truth is, honestly it's probably going to fail, but at least you will be able to say you tried.
And that 1 fucking time I'm wrong... My god, that 1 time. That's where the best that life has to offer exists. But first...
You have to try...
So ask yourself, really. What's the worst that could happen? ... Aaaand now ask yourself... What's the best that could happen?
But if you ask yourself "what's the worst that could happen?" you must realize that sometimes trying is NOT worth it.
I was thinking more, start that business, or start that college course. Don't fucking jump off the Eiffel Tower in and bundle of blankets.
Does that really need to be said?
Everyone has their own risk tolerance.
You answered "trying" as something that "is ALWAYS worth it" - which was OP's question.
If you now say you need to "weigh the pros and cons" - which I agree - then trying it's not ALWAYS worth it, no?
Then as someone else commented, each person has their own risk tolerance, so once each person weigh the pros and cons, trying will be worth it for some and not for others.
So answering "trying" to "what's something that's always worth it" is rather paradoxical, as what you probably meant then was "trying it, but only when it's worth it".

A higher-quality tool. Buy the cheapest-made one and it'll break shortly, buy the medium one and you'll be set for a while, buy the best one and you'll really be set.
Despite this I still buy the occasional dollar-store tool because it's nice to have extras around just in case them come in handy.
My rule is to buy the cheap ones first, then if it breaks, I know to buy the better/best set. I've saved a ton cause there are plenty of tools I've only used like 3 times.
Generally its a good idea to buy the cheapest gear possible when getting into a new hobby. That way if you lose interest there's not a lot lost, if you keep going you'll know what to appreciate when the time comes to upgrade.
Still, the cheaper one is the right choice sometimes.
I have a set of screwdrivers that I'm pretty sure came from the dollar store, and they're the favorite tool I have.
Used to work in IT and those screwdrivers disassembled many hundreds of computers, maybe over a thousand. They're magnetized just right too, so I can put a screw on the tip and place it with the tool instead of by hand. They're small, fit in your pocket, very convenient.
I've tried several times to replace them with something nicer but I never prefer the more expensive tool.
