Weekly Wisdom Newsletter #23

Published Date: Sunday, March 31, 2019

Hi All!

Here are this week's chosen learning points:

1. Work Happiness: The three things people need to feel fulfilled at work are mastery, autonomy, and purpose. Mastery is about getting really good at your craft. Autonomy means having control over how you do your work. Purpose is about feeling like your contribution matters. (Source)

2. Action and Intention: "Action without intention is meaningless. Intention without action is impact-less." - Jay Shetty

3. How to THINK: If you're angry or unhappy, THINK before speaking. That is, make sure what you say is True, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, and Kind. (Source)

Here are this week's recommended actions:

1. Think about how you can increase any of the three factors mentioned in bullet #1.

2. Identify something you do that feels meaningless. Set an intention for it to become meaningful.

3. Identify an intention you have but haven't acted on. Take the first step and get the ball rolling.

4. The next time you feel angry or unhappy, go through the THINK acronym before you send off that email or text.
