## Public accountability is the greatest motivator.
:::{.callout-tip collapse="true"}
## These goals are correlated with, but not causal to happiness.
They're [anti-sad](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1948550614568161?papetoc=), but pro-happy comes not from checking off boxes but by building [meaningful relationships](https://hbr.org/2010/07/how-will-you-measure-your-life) with God, self, family, and friends.
Why do I measure? Because whenever things aren't going well I often attribute it to a lacking of one of these things. But I don't keep this checkbox list to make me happy. Happiness is perspective and relationships. Purpose. So why this list? Well, they're the foundation of a guided, structured, and prosperous life.
- Studying scriptures and praying teaches me who I am and what my purpose is here on earth. It also gives me perfect role models to follow (Christ's example in the scriptures, and God's influence on me during prayer). What better way to guide your rudder (as [Christensen](https://hbr.org/2010/07/how-will-you-measure-your-life) says), than to be influenced by God on a daily basis. They say you're the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Why not make the number 1 person you spend your most valuable time to be God? (I don't have to spend 5 hours. 5 very meaningful minutes can correct my day.)
- Writing about my study is my little attempt to share God's light with the world. Imagine what social media would look like if everyone shared an insight from Marcus Aurelius, Buddha, Ghandi, Jesus, Mohammad, on a daily basis and how that insight affected their perspective? Be the change you want to see in the world, they say.
- Writing gratitude rewires my brain. It causes me to see things I wouldn't. Why not just say things I'm grateful for during prayer or a gratitude journal? I dunno. Those things don't help me for some reason. It always feels forced (I've tried it dozens of ways). Somehow, writing in public, gives me a great sense of "I mean it." Helps me think about that thing. Give it real thought.
- Physical health. Strength helps my bones. The effects of weight lifting are seen over decades, not months. I need to take better care of my bones. Same with cardio. They both energize today, but they prevent a whole host of bad things tomorrow and beyond. The effects are compounding - in both directions. Physical health also drives me to eat better. Eating better doesn't cause me to exercise, but exercising caueses me to eat better. Less snacks.
- Meditating helps me train my mind. It's a moment where I think about something I want to improve on. Less reactivity as a dad to kids misbehaving. More optimism. More appreciation for the body I have, the health I enjoy, the freedom I have in this world.
