  • #046 TDD Work

    Identity Capital 

    • What are 10 pieces of identity capital you have right now? What are 3 you’d like to earn? 
    • Must every job add to identity capital? When is it ever all right to work a Starbucks-type job? 

      • Weak Ties 

      • List 5 weak ties and how they might help you with where you’d like to go next. How can you reach out to them when the time is right? What’s keeping you from doing this? 
      • Think of three times when weak ties helped you learn or gain something new or pivotal. Why do you think they helped you in this way? 

        • Unthought Known 

        • What might you tell yourself or do when you feel like you don’t know what to do with your life? How would you advise a friend? 
        • When you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? What were you good at both in and out of school? Did what you want overlap with what you were good at? Why or why not? 

          • My Life Should Look Better on IG 

          •  What effect does social media seem to have on your mood, self-esteem, or mental health? Do you think they have an influence on what you think you should be doing in your twenties or with your life? Do you think they motivate you to do better or strive for more?

            • Search for Glory 

            • Imagine your life after graduation or over the next 5 years is a table with three jars of jam. What are those 3 jars and why? What does comparing them tell you about which jar to choose first? 

              • Customized Life 

              • If a career is like a customized bike or something you build as you go along, what are components that you think you’d want to start with? And some you’d like to aspire to? 
              • How do you create a story about yourself that is told during interviews if you don’t feel like you have one? Think about identity capital and how the pieces fit. Think about how you grew up and how that relates to who you are and who you want to be. Think about something that makes you different from your best friend. Last but not least, consider asking a friend to tell you your story

              • #045 TDD Introduction: Thirty is Not the New Twenty
                • On average, adults now settle down later. What are some benefits and risks of this? How will you use this to better your life? What are pitfalls you want to avoid?
                • What do your parents/those around you expect of you in your twenties? Is this at odds with what you want for yourself?

                • #044 TDD Preface: Now is Important
                  • 80% of life’s most defining moments take place by age thirty five
                  • Consequential experiences aren’t all that grand or exciting
                  • They're usually people, jobs, or conversations that provided little immediate dramatic effect
                  • It’s never too late to be intentional about taking charge of your life. Don’t let it be an excuse. The good place quote: It’s not about being good or bad. What’s important is being better than you were yesterday.
                  • What are some defining moments you hope will happen for yourself by 35?

                  • #043 The Defining Decade (TDD): Prologue stuff
                    Basically I finished this book and would highly recommend cuz it was a great read that provides some guidance to lost people like me. TLDR: episode = chapter + thoughts + guided questions.
