When was the last time you felt fully alive? In the survey behind this play series, the third pattern was called Deep Engagement: exciting, often physical activities, planned and shaped by rules, that left people full of energy. How to find that feeling more safely: choose a challenge you want, give it a game shape, and turn up the feeling, not the danger.

How to make decisions
Decisions are all around us, all the time — and getting better at them has more leverage on your life than each topic we share here in isolation. This is an 80/20 on decision making from Chip and Dan Heath's Decisive: why we're bad at decisions, and the four-step process they propose to fix it. Take a decision you're working through right now and apply the questions to it as you go.
