Episode 36: Pleasure/Purpose Balance with habits


Listen Later

Summer allows us extra margin. Lots of our commitments either pause for the summer or are dramatically scaled back.

The questions is: how are you spending your margin? 

Jenna talks through how summer is more of a feasting season. 
More fun, more food, more vacation, more friend time, more movies, more spending, etc.

After a few years of "watching" her tendencies in the summer is to get out of balance with pleasure habits where overindulgence doesn't lead to higher levels of joy. 

Maintaining some level of investment into more purposeful habits (God time, connection with her husband, etc) produces contentment in a way being too pleasure focus can't.

Walk away: asking yourself if the extra margin your summer schedule gives you- are you using it well?  If not- how would you like to recalibrate your consumption to finish the season well?
