DESCRIPTION
A personal presentation about taking the leap - doing the things that you MUST do, the things that scare you in order to be true to yourself. The presentation is also about how to apply design /UX thinking to personal development and it's expanded since the first one I gave at the UX camp CPH.

A FEW THINGS I PROCRASTINATE WITH
ANYTHING and EVERYTHING that in my head has “official” stamp on it (like bank, taxes, lawyers, state things…)
Getting together with friends
Calling home
Training
Drawing
Fixing stuff at home
Starting design work
41

TRY SOMETHING NEW EVERY 30 DAYS
The procrastination questions list
Prioritise the to-do list
Tackle the to-do’s immediately as they come up
Ask 5 × why
Get rid of the “dentist” approach
Trash and delegate

THE MATRIX
Taking a leap, Ustwo Shingi 2014
PRIORITISED TO-DO LIST
Taking a leap, Ustwo Shingi 2014
- Or is it just plain laziness?
TREAT IT LIKE A PROTOTYPE
THE MODEL
Taking a leap, Ustwo Shingi 2014
HOW DO I KNOW IT’S GOOD?
What does my gut feeling say?
How many lists am I writing?
What feedback am I getting from the people around me?
How is my overall well-being? Energy levels?
Am I learning new things?
Am I having fun?
