Watching a horror movie? (Though I resonate with this recent xkcd.)
Reading the first chapter of books that don’t seem interesting, and seeing what I learn anyway?
Going on a formal “old fashioned” date.
Processing my emotions via reframing and similar instead of via Focusing (on reflection, I think I would benefit from trying a bunch of ways to process stress.)
Reframing and self-influence moves.
CBT and TAPs.
Focusing and IDC.
Painting something.
Doing a very different kind of work than I’m used to?
Doing the accounting.
Doing something that’s very outward facing: lots of interviews or schmoozing something.
Writing marketing copy.
Try and teach a CFAR unit with Val’s style.
One thing that I notice is that I feel disinclined to try new things in places where I don’t just have a thing that works, I have implicit or simple theory about why it works.
