HW9 - Time Waster Type, Rules of A Happy Life

First, I've been working on LifeSparcs.com . As you might know, LifeSparcs is the process of finding and achieving your goals without hating your life.  It has in the center of it a process framework that will help you get there.  But for now, what are the rules of LifeSparc?

Four Rules of the LifeSPARC process -   Finding and Staying on the Happy Track

1. You have to write your goals the actions that will embody your happy life track
2. You have find things that renew you on your journey for sustained energy on your happy life track
3. You have to get some advice to make sure that you're actually on your true happy life track. 
4. You have to repeat the above steps weekly, reviewing and prioritizing while on your happy life track

Note about the term happy life track.   This aligns with HW#4 -

Happiness is not a destination, nor is it really a pursuit, since pursuit infers you can catch it.  No, happiness is more subtle - you must be on the track of doing meaningful activity, and then notice that you're happy doing it.

Complexity is everywhere with finding our happiness track.  Its a journey of sorts, but with intention. You're constantly refactoring your prioritize based on your life stage, where you're at emotionally, your family life, your job - all of these blend together to form your life.  It is this amalgam that makes it so hard to attain a different possibility - our as is state has us already so overloaded, who has time to do that other thing?

And yet you must and that is the key value of the LifeSPARC process - to find your happiness track through meaningful activity despite the complexities of your current  life.

Here's a fun piece from Inc.  magazine - what kind of procrastinator are you?  It actually has some decent advice from Dr. Ferrari  (really cool name, dude.)

So what did you come up with?  I'm a thrill seeker. :)

That's it for now - have a great weekend!
