The Theory of Fun: A Daily "Fun-o-Meter" Journal Practice for Ideas, Inspiration, and Purpose Ep53

<p>Do you gauge the quality of your work, content, and life by how &quot;fun&quot; it is? Weird secret - I used to HATE being asked what I did &quot;for fun.&quot; In this episode, I share how I started taking the theory and pursuit of fun more &quot;seriously&quot; (lol) as a daily practice and how it&#39;s changed everything. I discovered how asking this one question &quot;What is the most fun thing I could do?&quot; can breathe magic into your environmental work, expand your creativity, and unexpectedly redirect you more closely to your true calling. I share more on the theory of fun, the dopamine system, and how the pursuit of fun is an essential driver of innovation and growth.</p> <p>* * * </p> <p>How to Save the World is a podcast about the psychology of what gets people to do eco-behaviors and take climate action: Environmental engineer, designer, and author, Katie Patrick, hunts down the latest behavioral science literature from top universities such as Harvard, MIT, and Stanford to unearth the evidence-based teachings you can use to rapidly get more people to adopt your environmental campaign, program, or product.
