Enjoy, Suffer, Hope, Fear (ESHF)
Human beings are peculiar phenomena. More than ability and logic, our decisions and actions are defined by our emotions and feelings. Dan Areily has written about how our irrationality sets us apart. Jonathan Haidt, and other psychologists preceded Dan in researching how this leads to creativity and to our happiness.
The ESHF Framework can help us become aware of the motivation and velocity we are moving with. Projecting into the future Horizons (near/far/distant) we can take charge of our journey towards the goals that are important for us. We always achieve what we want!
