*How does the keystone activity help guide my actions across a variety of situations.* ##### what is it? Based on the idea from [[🐓 Idea Farm/🪾Deadfall/For myself only/Readwise/Books/The Gifts of Imperfection]]: > It would be reasonable to say that I have a yoga attitude ... I value mindfulness, breathing, and the body-mind-spirit connection. I even have yoga outfits For me, identifying my "climbing attitude" connects with several ways of living: - how do you balance self-love and striving? - [[be available for the opportunity]] - [[Stories leverage ideas the same way debt leverages assets]] - [[Power Leaks]] - [[psychological safety]] - [[you don't have that kind of time]] - [[I haven't failed until I've blamed]] - [[the attention beam]] - [[love the plateau]] _My tattoo embodies the symbol of love, while recognizing the pain associated with making important things happen._ ##### why does it matter? I am naming a cornerstone of my identity. Climbing provides resonance, metaphor, and framing for [[Deciding]] and [[Doing]]. ##### This reminds me of Cynthia's love of animals, I can see it for it being so good! It frames so much of her decision-making and existence. ##### What would the opposite argument be? If I over-commit to a single identity pillar, I become unbalanced. Like any stool, at least three legs should exist to help my have a stable platform for decisions. Those other legs of my identity should be [[servant leadership]] and [[love]]. tags: #note/growing ##### Sources:
