Tracking should be a JOY!

I am a strong believer in personal development, also called personal growth. The more I have learned about life, the more I come to realise that we can’t and we shouldn’t try to control life itself. All the big things that have existed, currently exist and will exist are really out of our control and that is a good thing!

What we do have some control over is our daily choices and our personal environment. And by taking control of those, we can actually have a big positive impact on our lives and our surroundings.

This is where personal growth comes into the picture. I see personal growth as continuously learning the most optimal way to invest in our core. It is important to note that there exist no perfect solution for all. We want a custom solution that is aligned with our values and our beliefs.

These ideas are some of the core ideas in the Creative Healthy Lifestyle concept, which is a framework for sustainable and happy entrepreneurship.

Having worked with tracking myself (and others) for several years, I have continuously improved the process and measured the impact. What I learned is that the tracking itself is rewarding and creates motivation to keep building yourself, but can also be annoying if it relies too much on our forced discipline.

I believe our lives should be a mix between focus and flow. Where the focus is our persistent, logical investment in our core values, while the flow is enjoying being present and feeling our energy. The majority should be on the flow side, not the focus side.

To get optimal results from a process it is fundamental that we enjoy the it and it becomes an easy part of life.

Our latest tracking tool is called CHL | Joy and is our attempt at building an Automated growth and empowerment solution.

Currently it is an Android application that automatically tracks the apps we use for our personal development and shares it online in our personal web dashboard.
