scarcity, excess, and sufficiency

First of all, it occurs to me that these three "regimes"
correspond to spherical, hyperbolic, and Euclidean space,
respectively.

Second, it seems interesting to ask: Which things
are scarce? Which things are there too much of?
Which things are there enough of?

And -- are these things inherently scarce, over-abundant,
or sufficient -- locally, or globally?

What can be done with a scarcity or an excess?
(E.g. in the bath, you can turn on hot or cold water
as needed -- or if the bath itself gets too full, you can
unplug the drain.)

I think there are plenty of times when I'm interacting
with what I deem to be a scarce resource (perhaps because
of "artificial" constraints -- whether or not the "artifice" is
explicitly productive) and I get into some sort of panic
mode. There will never be enough, there is nothing I can
do about it -- and so forth and so on.

I'm guessing that just by requiring myself to go through
the checklist (1) Is it locally scarce or globally scarce?
and (2) if it is only locally scarce, what can I do to get
to a position where it is sufficient? -- I might open up
mental pathways that would allow me to break out of
my panic.
