Early data shows, it's not how much you carry

I built a little quiz about how people balance purpose, duty, and self. Seventy-seven people have taken it so far.

The early data is already telling me something I didn't expect. It looks like my hypothesis might be right, but in an unusual way.

I thought the people carrying the most would be the ones running on empty. They're not.

What actually separates the people who are thriving from the people who are depleted isn't how much they carry, it's whether they've held onto two things while carrying it: a sense of meaning and their duties to the real connections in their lives.

Same load. Completely different outcome.

The difference is connection.

Seventy-seven responses isn't enough to draw the big conclusions yet, and I'm being careful not to overclaim. But the signal is strong enough that I want a lot more data.

If you haven't taken it, I'd love your two minutes: www.emilyinpublic.com/survey

The more of you who do, the sharper this gets.
