Invitation to Mastery
In your journal, divide your page into three columns.

  1. In the first column, list everything you do in a day the takes more than 3 hours total
  2. In the second column, list the need it fulfills. Try to be as honest with yourself as possible. If you watch TV for 3 hours a night, instead of listing the need as a relaxation, it is likely the more honest answer is distraction. Likewise, of course money is a need, however, lots of activities can generate money. If you're making money at a job that is easy, but makes you feel empty inside, then the met need is convenience or ease, not money.
  3. In the third column, list the alternate activities that meet the same need but also contribute to the lives of others. If you watch TV for three hours to “relax'' at night, an alternative could be knitting hats or blankets (without watching TV) to be donated or given to loved ones (if knitting relaxes you). If you spend the majority of your time at a job that does not fill you with purpose and meaning, start to list jobs that could change that for you.
  4. Start incorporating alternative activities throughout the week.
