What to do while you are locked down
What makes you happy? Look at your Birkman Interests
This is hardly rocket science but reflecting on what you love is always productive and motivating. So - honestly - what was the best job you ever had in terms of enjoyment and satisfaction? (doesn't matter if it was low status or a holiday job while you were a student; I remember decades ago meeting an IT manager who told me the best job he had ever had was sorting soda bottles in a recycling plant: every 5 seconds he had to make a decision - brown / green / clear - and he loved it)
Another was working as a tree-feller on a farm. So, what is yours? (feel free to share with us, especially if you have an unusual favorite!) Think: tree-feller - 89 Outdoor, 85 Technical but especially 92 Musical - in control of an aggressively loud sound environment
Where does the Birkman fit - look at your high areas of interest (that's anything over 70 and especially high 80s and into the 90s). Can you see a connection between your high scores and your favorite job?
We would be really surprised if you can't. You may need to combine two or three of those high scores to get the full picture, but it will be obvious to most of you. IF you have scores over 70 in one of the interests, doing those activities will give you energy and make you happy.
Other examples, High Administrative will organize their world. High Numerical may set up sequential things to do or do inventory. If you are high Musical and never learned to play an instrument, order a Ukulele from Amazon and look online for u tube lessons
High Artistic, redecorate your house or plant flowers if you are Outdoor too.
This is also a great conversation with those in your social media community. How are they motivating themselves in this weird time? Enjoy
