Status Updates From Designing Your New Work Life

Remember, courage isn't the absence of fear; courage is action in the face of fear. So it's okay to be a little scared as you're doing all this, but just try to keep moving and not get stuck.
Gravity Problems: We also tend to get mired in what we call.

Knowing that were going for an acceptable resolution and we don't have to permanently solve the problem introduces us to the next big idea in designing a resolution for our reframed MAP.

Be careful about what’s going on and what’s “really” going on.

so the idea is to just build your first product with all the valuable (viable) features and no more. That's a great idea, and it applies to reframing, too, but this time instead of MVP we will call it "MAP," which stands for Minimum Actionable Problem. Once you have reframed your big hairy problem, once you've turned it into its Minimum Actionable Problem, you get to solve a much smaller and more tractable problem.

این کتاب رو حتما حتما باید وقت گذاشت و تمریناشو انجام داد. بدون تمریناش واقعا فایده نداره.

It's time to blow up this somewhat romantic idea about work and that this hasn't always been what people expected.For most of the 19th & 20th centuries, people aspired to a simpler idea, where you make money one place and have a life in another.This is and has always been a valid way to live, and we suspect that it's the way most people live today.
They just don't admit it-and that's part of what makes them unhappy.

Beware of being "attracted" to problems, conflicts, forgotten to-do items,etc.The mind loves to get caught up in that stuff.When that stuff appears(and it will),just tell yourself, 'get to that another time,and let it go.
Don't fight it or attempt to resolve it-both of which will steal all your attention.Just acknowledge it,then let it go and return to your reflection.Yes,this takes some practice to get the hang of.

There are two types of life design reflections:
1. Savoring
2. Insight


Don't forget that reflection is a practice. That means that to be most effective, it ought to happen regularly.

We have a few different categories of "noticing" that are connected to the research about what makes work "good work," and they are:
What did I learn?
What did I initiate?
Who did I help?
This process makes your observations about work explicit and tangible when you write them down.

What makes life meaningful and what maximizes your happiness and longevity are relationships—who you love and who loves you. And there is a strong correlation between doing something for the benefit of others and living a longer, healthier life.

Happiness is love. Full stop. -George Vaillant

Interest is interesting😎
Curiosity is the most important mind-set of a designer because it drives inquiry and action, and it is the starting point for almost all design activities.
