Holistic leveling up would then consist of making a list of all “required” things, evaluating sincerely how good you are at each of them, and focusing on the ones you have most neglected. Plus doing something about your selected “optional” thing.
there is a lot of value on just thinking on what our values are, what we need and feel we need, and what the best course of action is (while also committing); but the framework of these “required” and “optional” framework makes it better, especially when coupled with the idea of following the things which are likely to provide most benefit!

On the other hand the last paragraphs deserve another post on their own, I remember Eliezer writing that any writer has at least 1million words that need to get out before writing the real stuff. I would say, “don’t push that million on me!”
Anyways, welcome John Igo, I really like it when new users read the stuff that the community is really about.
This is a great comment!
