It seems to me that all of the things you label “action” are actually also preconditions. For instance if I said to you “Go feel that discretionary time is sufficient” or “Go have things you find important” I don’t actually think you’d know what to do.
One fun thing might be to do some How Laddering on this, until you a get a set of habits, actions, skills and knowledge that you can actually act on.
Oh, I completely agree! I simply labeled things “action” when I thought they were sufficiently specific for me to act on.
I hadn’t seen how-laddering before, so thanks for that!
Since there’s essentially unlimited ways of having things one finds important, I use these more as heuristics to decide between different options – ie. do I currently feel constrained on time, and if so, is option A or B best for me.
