I attended the World Domination Summit in Portland last weekend. Besides learning some Bollywood dance moves, I had a chance to work through some activities and lectures that help me refocus on my core values. And I recognized some habits I’d like to change and some new habits I’d like to form.
Portland was fun to re-discover. I grew up nearby. And both Mt Hood and Powell’s Bookstore called out to my soul. The foodcart and bicycle cultures reminded me of some additional things I love.
The speakers really tried to remind us that action is required. My first action is to take control of the distractions at work. This does not mean I’m going to stop playing games, but I will get something out of them and not just “completion”, especially feeling like I have to complete endless games with exponential tails.
My next step is to review my notes and reach out to some of the people I met. I also want to reach out to my existing friends and figure out ways to involve them more powerfully in my life.
And starting tomorrow, after a bit of sorting and de-cluttering, I’ll start summarizing the talks.
