actually science is awesome, it’s when it gets misused by people in suits it starts causing issues

@Meteotrix my argument is tracking everything IS a misuse of science.

That’s one take.
Yup.
It would seem that the bloke was raised to have “visions of grandure.”
(My folks – albeit proud of me – are happy enough to see me feed and clothe my family 😅)
That said,
Another point of view is to see the validity in (and value of) slowing down enough to “take stock” of life through the lens of a selected set of values, and then – as time goes by – discover ” blind spots” as patterns show up that we might not otherwise have noticed.
I think our boy did okay.
How are you doing, mate?

That said,
Another noticing is to see 1) even he notice this in his talk 😊, and 2) the validity in (and value of) slowing down enough to “take stock” of life through the lens of a selected set of values, and then – as time goes by – discover “blind spots” as patterns show up that we might not otherwise have noticed.

Cheers to your day, mate!

Thank you Chris for sharing!
I have to say, I’m disappointed in the negative comments.
This man gets on stage to share a journaling method that has helped with introspection and finding meaning. He also mentioning that harsh feedback hits hard. And yet the knee-jerk reaction is to insult and criticize?
If his method doesn’t work for you, that’s fine, but please don’t be rude.

i recommend more people track stuff they’re interested in. I was struggling with chronic fatigue and was worried about my productivity, so i started tracking my work hours more precisely. I started seeing tons of patterns, at some point i realized i could predict my energy levels a month in advance lol. I got hard data about what my actual energy ceiling was, how long my recovery took after work etc. Having fewer doubts about these things is awesome.
@AussieWarrior76

That’s excellent!!! Life is full of patterns and if we get on top we can predict and preserve energy when we know we will be low!

“A good life” is so subjective and different for everyone. And conforming to societal rules about a good life is starting to be more dismissed by the informed

I’ve talked about a lot of what Chris talks about in therapy too (worry, self-criticism, etc.). His approach seems like an application of evaluative rubrics to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
