EXERCISE I HAD TO DO: do the VIA Survey of Character Strengths. Choose one of your top signature strengths and spend 30 minutes each day for three days immersed in a related activity (the same or a variety). For example, if a top signature strength is appreciation of beauty and mastery, and your passion is music, choose a favorite performer, and really listen for 30 minutes immerse yourself, eyes closed, no distractions, etc. If it is love of learning, pick up a book solely for enjoyment or go to the museum, etc. If it is gratitude, spend 30 minutes solely focused on writing a letter of gratitude, or making a list of people who you would like to thank, and then calling them.
