I decided I'd share the list of questions I try to ask myself every morning and evening. I usually spend about thirty seconds on each question, just thinking about them, though I sometimes write my answers down if I have a particularly good insight. I find they keep me pretty well-calibrated to my best self. Some are idiosyncratic, but hopefully these will be generally applicable.
A. Today, this week, this month: 1. What am I excited about? 2. What goals do I have? 3. What questions do I want to answer? 4. What specific ways do I want to be better?
B. Yesterday, last week, last month: 5. What did I accomplish that am I proud of? 6. In what instances did I behave in a way I am proud of? 7. What did I do wrong? How will I do better? 8. What do I want to remember? What adventures did I have?
C. Generally: 9: If I'm not doing exactly what I want to be doing, why?
What does it mean for "you" to not be doing exactly what you "want"? Do you downplay or ignore your not-conscious thought processes?
