Themes

To better accomplish positive life change, give yourself a theme. A theme will be easy to follow and will impact your daily actions. Without knowing where you want to go you just wonder. Resolutions give us the feeling of failure, themes gives us chances to apply them. A good theme can't fail. Themes don't have very defined Goals.

Just having a theme in your mind will change the way you think. You'll notice paths that weren't there before. Broad themes gives flexibility. Pick a broad directional idea that resonates with you and run with it. Themes can be as long or short as you need. These are some theme ideas:

  • Order
  • Simplicity
  • Novelty
  • Experiments
  • Joy
  • Health
  • Finances
  • Discipline
  • Growth
  • People
  • Knowledge
  • Nature
  • Reflection
  • Iteration
  • Attention
  • Foundation

The goal is to continually make some progress on areas of your life that are important but not urgent. The things you want to focus on are the trend lines. Don't obsess on the results of specific projects/Goals. Are your trend lines moving in the right direction?

You don't need to limit themes to yourself. Can be applied to other things like trips, Relationships, places, …
