Gather data on what energizes you from "summary" of Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett,Dave Evans
To design a life that is fulfilling and energizing, it is important to pay attention to what activities or experiences give you a sense of joy, satisfaction, and energy. This involves being mindful of how different activities make you feel - both mentally and physically. By gathering data on what energizes you, you can gain valuable insights into what truly matters to you and what brings out your best self. One way to gather this data is to keep a journal or log of your daily activities and how you feel during and after each of them. This can help you identify patterns and trends in terms of what activities leave you feeling drained and what activities leave you feeling invigorated. It can also help you notice any activities that you may not have realized were energizing for you. Another way to gather data on what energizes you is to pay attention to your body's physical cues. Notice how different activities affect your energy levels, mood, and overall well-being. Do you feel more alive and engaged after a workout? Do you feel a sense of peace and calm after spending time in nature? These physical cues can provide valuable information about what activities truly resonate with you. In addition to keeping a journal and paying attention to your body's cues, it can also be helpful to seek feedback from others. Ask friends, family members, or colleagues about what they notice energizes you. Sometimes, others may have insights into your strengths and passions that you may not be fully aware of yourself.- You can begin to build a life that is more aligned with your values, interests, and strengths. This process of self-discovery can help you make more intentional choices in your career, relationships, and daily activities. Ultimately, by focusing on what energizes you, you can create a life that is not only fulfilling but also sustainable in the long run.
