This is a lovely post! There’s definitely a dopamine hit in getting jobs completed but there’s also so powerful about creating fire too! One of my favourite jobs in my very first PR jobs was stuffing all the press releases I’d written in envelopes and franking a huge pile of them - it felt enormously satisfying - maybe just starting and actually finishing something!

Oh great question Suzy and I love the fire metaphor too. In human design my self-theme is actually satisfaction (this will also be true for c70% of us!) and so I purposefully seek it out because it really does power me on for the day ✨ if I’m not feeling satisfied I’ll ask “will this [task] bring me satisfaction?

So at the weekend I was feeling really flat… and I nudged myself to clean the whole house and as I was working just had this incredible buzzy/calm sense of feeling just right. I often get it when I finish a call too, and take a few moments to enjoy and anchor it in 🌟
