On her 97th birthday, my grandmother gathered her strength to rise from her wheelchair and stand proudly beside the piano overlooking the Conservatory of Flowers. “Remember me,” she said, her voice both gentle and commanding. “This is how I want you to remember me.” I looked away, tears welling. Of course I’ll remember you. It was touching to see her present herself in her own power and independence, not wanting her frailty to overshadow her presence.

That moment stayed with me. Towards the end of life, we all want to be remembered. But perhaps even more, we want people to really get to know who we are.

The stories that tether us

Two months later during a recent solo Thanksgiving trip back to California, my grandmother told me she had an urgent need to pass on our family stories: how her parents met, how she met my grandfather, and what it was like to raise a family in her time. She didn’t want these stories to be lost. So, with guidance and technology from my younger sister and brother-in-law, I recorded our conversations.

For someone who often stayed in the background during family gatherings, it was quite an experience. She looked right at me — truly saw me — and shared hours of memories. It was probably the longest conversation I’d ever had with her, and I cherished every minute.

That experience opened my eyes to something bigger: stories aren’t just entertainment. They are how we construct meaning, significance, and belonging. Research from social psychologists such as Dan McAdams shows that humans make sense of their lives through narrative identity — the internal story we tell about who we are and how we connect to others. And as Brené Brown’s work on belonging also reminds us, true belonging comes not from simply fitting in, but from being known and accepted as we are. When we share stories, we strengthen not only memory, but also our sense of significance and shared humanity.

Fading photos and fading memories

Later that same trip, I flipped through old family photos. I loved seeing myself surrounded by cousins and grandparents, our faces radiating laughter and warmth — yet I realized I couldn’t recall many of those moments. Where was I, really? What were we doing? Why couldn’t I remember the feeling?

My memories of the past are fading over time. Because I spent so much of my life away from much of my immediate family, I also lost something else: the stories told and retold at family gatherings — our oral history that fills us with nostalgia, helps us remember, and reminds us how we belong to one another. Psychologists call this collective reminiscing, and it plays an important role in emotional bonding and identity.

I cherish those moments more now and want to hold onto them as tightly as I can. How can I preserve these memories before they slip further away? These stories feel like part of what remains of my existence. They show me how I am connected to other people. I look back at these photos with longing, wanting not only to remember the moment, but to recover the sense of belonging I imagine I once felt so naturally.

The Value of Storytelling

What I’m carrying forward now is a deeper understanding of why stories matter. I now understand the value of taking the time to share my stories instead of letting them go unspoken, so others can really see me, my significance, my experiences, and the lessons I’ve carried through my life. Thanks to Vinh Giang’s STAGE Academy, I’m practicing how to bring stories into everyday conversation, and I’ve noticed that when I do, people lean in more, stay longer, and connect more deeply.

At the same time, I want to keep making space to hear other people’s stories, because I see how much there is to learn when we let someone speak from their own lived experience. There is something powerful about understanding one another this way, not just as individuals passing through life, but as people whose lives overlap, influence one another, and shape the communities we belong to. When we share stories, we don’t just exchange memories; we build belonging.

I want my children to know me the way I am grateful my grandparents allowed me to know them, not just as a parent, but as a whole person with a history, a voice, and experiences worth passing on. I want them to grow up surrounded by stories that help them feel rooted, connected, and seen. Because in the end, what makes life meaningful isn’t just achievement or success, it’s the imprint we leave on each other’s lives, and the way our stories help us belong to something bigger than ourselves.

The Productivity Paradox

When I had more time, my productivity and creativity thrived. I'd constantly find new ways to enhance my personal website, spot inefficiencies at work, and develop tools to solve them. Open spaces in my schedule let me tackle organizational and strategic challenges with clarity, putting all the pieces together seamlessly.

I've realized an important truth: I need that downtime to give me more uptime. The moments of apparent "nothingness" are actually essential for my brain to process and create.

My current challenge: Too much to do, so little time, and overwhelming information overload-especially trying to keep up with the latest in AI while immediately applying that knowledge.

My Path Back to Control

Instead of staying stuck, here are three things I'm doing right now to get on the right path:

1. Prioritizing Deep Work

I'm taking Jim Kwik's Kwik Productivity Course to better prioritize tasks, limit distractions, and create space for deep work sessions. When I can focus without interruption, I not only get more done but actually feel more fulfilled in the process.

2. Developing Personal Agency

I'm listening to "The Power of Agency" by Paul Napper, PsyD. and Anthony Rao, Ph.D. (Giri Coneti's recommendation) on Audible to learn how to take control of my life through behavioral and cognitive principles. This approach is helping me regain a sense of control when everything feels overwhelming.

One realization from the book that stood out to me: “Boredom is good…An emptier mind is freer to move in the direction of intentional deeper and/or creative thought. Developing the capacity to be alone with yourself facilitates reflection, which is a building block of agency.”

3. Leveraging AI Tools Strategically

I subscribed to a year of Lenny's Newsletter to unlock a year's worth of Perplexity Pro and other AI tools to be more efficient with research, communication, and sorting through my thoughts. These tools help me manage information overload by filtering and organizing content based on what I actually need.

Breaking Through Analysis Paralysis

The challenge of analysis paralysis is very real in today's environment. Experts recommend several practical approaches to combat this:

1. Limit information gathering time: Set specific time boundaries for research to avoid unproductive rabbit holes.

2. Identify three to five priorities: Focus on just a few key tasks since our brains can only effectively track about seven things at once.

3. Create a reverse outline: When organizing thoughts, write brief summaries of each idea to see how concepts flow together.

Moving Forward

I've found a coach, my friend and former colleague Sami Melcher, who can help me build momentum to keep moving in the right direction. External accountability and guidance are helping me translate knowledge into consistent action.

When I feel overwhelmed, I try to remember that sometimes the most productive thing I can do is nothing at all-at least for a little while. Creating space for boredom might be exactly what I need to reclaim the productivity and fulfillment that comes from having the mental clarity to do my best work.

What strategies have helped you manage information overload and reclaim your focus? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Suddenly, that carefully built momentum vanishes. The routine breaks. Getting back on track feels like pushing a boulder uphill.

This was exactly my experience recently. I was genuinely excited about the steps I was taking towards greater happiness and fulfillment. But a combination of sickness, travel, intense case study interviews, and social commitments completely derailed me. The frustration was real. How could I rebuild that momentum and, more importantly, learn to *follow through* even when life throws curveballs?

I want to share what worked for me, some wins I'm proud of, and insights from experts that might help you too.

Finding My Footing Again: Small Wins & Smart Systems

When I felt overwhelmed and off-track, I realized I couldn't just jump back into my old, ambitious routine. I needed a different approach. Here’s what made the difference:

1. Starting Small for Big Confidence: I decided to focus on achievable wins. For me, this meant diving into AI and Machine Learning courses online. These were topics I was passionate about, and gaining certifications felt like concrete progress. Each completed module and earned certificate wasn't just a line on my resume; it was a boost to my confidence, proving I *could* still learn and achieve things.

2. Building a Flexible Learning Routine: Small wins are great, but consistency is key. I started building a routine around learning. This included joining Microsoft’s AI Learning Community, where I engaged in hands-on learning alongside a passionate and motivated group—an experience that ultimately reignited my efforts on this blog! Listening to books also became something I could do even when I wasn't feeling 100% or had limited time – during commutes, while doing chores, or even resting. Learning became bite-sized and adaptable, keeping the feeling of progress alive.

3. Making My Calendar My Command Center: Like many people, I had to-do lists. The problem? They often felt separate from my actual schedule. Inspired by Nir Eyal's work, I started integrating my to-dos directly *onto my calendar*. Using timeboxing – allocating specific blocks of time for specific tasks – meant that "work on course module" or "listen to audiobook chapter" wasn't just an item on a list; it was a scheduled appointment with myself. This drastically reduced procrastination and helped me manage my time more effectively.

4. The Power of Connection: Progress isn't just about tasks; it's also about people. I made a conscious effort to maintain and cultivate relationships within my professional network. Staying connected, sharing insights, and offering support kept doors open. Ultimately, these connections played a crucial role in landing my latest exciting opportunity: becoming a Principal Product Manager for the OneAI team at ADP!

Celebrating the Wins: Proof in the Pudding

Following these methods didn't just make me *feel* better; it yielded tangible results:

• Certifications Secured: I successfully earned multiple AI and Machine Learning Specialization certifications, validating my knowledge and boosting my professional profile.

• Dream Job Achieved: The combination of skill-building, confidence gains, and networking culminated in achieving my goal of landing a fantastic job in a field I'm passionate about.

These wins reinforced that focusing on small, consistent steps and using smart systems really works.

Keeping the Momentum: Insights from the Experts

My journey got me curious: what does research say about getting back on track after being derailed? Beyond my personal experience, here are some science-backed strategies:

• Practice Self-Compassion: It's easy to beat yourself up when you fall off the wagon. Research shows that self-criticism is demotivating. Instead, acknowledge the setback without judgment (like you would comfort a friend) and gently guide yourself back to your routine.

• Use Implementation Intentions: Vague goals are easy to abandon. Try the "If-Then" technique developed by psychologist Peter Gollwitzer. Frame your plan like this: "IF [trigger situation occurs], THEN I will [perform desired action]." For example: "IF I finish dinner, THEN I will open my course platform for 15 minutes." This makes the action more automatic.

• Re-Design Your Environment: Make following through easier. If you want to restart your morning workout, lay out your clothes the night before. If you want to read more, put the book on your pillow. Make the path of least resistance lead towards your goal (a concept championed by James Clear in Atomic Habits).

• Lower the Barrier to Re-entry: Don't feel like you need to jump back in at 100%. Just start *again*, even if it's tiny. Meditate for 1 minute instead of 10. Read one page instead of a chapter. The act of restarting is often the hardest part.

• Find an Accountability Partner: Sharing your goals and progress with someone else can provide powerful motivation and support, especially when you're trying to rebuild momentum.

My Follow-Through Toolkit: Resources That Helped

Along the way, a couple of books were particularly influential:

• Limitless by Jim Kwik: This book was a game-changer for my mindset. Kwik breaks down learning into Mindset (believing you can), Motivation (having purpose), and Methods (how to learn effectively). It powerfully argues that our learning potential isn't fixed and our brains are capable of growth at any age. It also offers practical strategies for boosting energy and reclaiming time – crucial when you're feeling drained.

• Indistractible by Nir Eyal: This book provided the tactical framework for managing my time and focus. The concepts of Timeboxing (deciding what you'll do and when) and using your Calendar as a primary tool for scheduling *all* your intentions (not just meetings) were incredibly helpful in moving from vague plans to concrete actions.

You Can Get Back on Track Too!

Getting derailed by life is normal; staying derailed doesn't have to be. My journey taught me the power of starting small, building flexible routines, using smart systems like calendar integration, and nurturing connections. Combined with insights on self-compassion and planning, it's entirely possible to regain momentum and keep moving towards your goals.

Don't be discouraged by setbacks. See them as opportunities to learn, adapt, and find strategies that truly work for *you*. You've got this!

When my time in this world is up, I want to have made a difference—however small. Even if it’s just to my children, I want to leave the world a little better than I found it.

My grandfather was a teacher who left an indelible mark on everyone he touched. When he passed, the outpouring of love and gratitude was overwhelming. His life served as a reminder that significance isn’t measured in grand gestures but in the lives we touch along the way.

When I left my job, I lost my sense of self. I had tied so much of my identity to my work that I felt unmoored when it was gone. And yet, I wasn’t alone—hundreds of thousands of tech workers faced similar layoffs. It made me confront a hard truth: there’s so much more to life than work.

Héctor García and Francesc Miralles put it succinctly in Ikigai:

“A life without purpose is a life without direction. People who have a reason to get up in the morning tend to be happier and healthier.”

So, what’s my reason?

My children immediately come to mind. If nothing else, I live for them—to provide the guidance and support they need to lead happy, healthy lives. That’s part of why I started this Substack: to explore my own journey toward happiness so I can better equip my daughters with the tools to live fulfilling lives.

But is there something more?

García and Miralles also remind us:

“The key to a long and happy life lies in discovering what you love, what you are good at, and what the world needs. By aligning these elements, you can cultivate a sense of meaning and purpose.”

These questions resonated deeply during my recent job hunt, when I reflected on my personal brand through Never Search Alone by Phyl Terry.

Career Significance

In my career, my most meaningful highlights were all about empowerment and transformation:

• Empowering teams to experiment and achieve outcomes.

• Restructuring teams for efficiency and growth.

• Teaching product excellence through research and workshops.

• Mentoring my reports to reach their potential and grow in their careers.

• Building habits of user feedback where none existed before.

These moments stood out because they aligned with what I loved, what I was good at, and what my teams needed. They were my ikigai at work.

Personal Significance

Outside of work, though, I’m still figuring out how I can help others and contribute meaningfully. Guidance from Marshall Goldsmith and his AI bot has been invaluable in this discovery process. Here are the steps I’m working through:

1. Reflect on Passions and Interests

What activities and topics am I drawn to and make me lose track of time?

• Climbing, board games, video games, TV/movies/musicals.

• Celebrating events and creating memory keepsakes like photo books and videos.

• Writing about the results of my research and pondering.

Is my purpose to bring joy and playfulness to others? To create and preserve memories? To share my findings with others?

2. Consider My Talents and Strengths

I’m naturally drawn to research and planning for the future, cultivating stability and trust, and bringing structure to chaos. Here’s what my strengths assessments reveal:

• Futuristic & Analytical: Strategic thinking balanced with data-driven decision-making.

• Relator & Equalizer: Building strong relationships and fostering collaboration.

• Discipline & Organizer: Executing with precision and organizing the unstructured.

Assessments Reference: Strengthsfinder, StandOut, DISC, Myers-Briggs, NBI.

3. Identify My Values

These values guide my decisions and aspirations:

• Continuous Improvement (Growth & Learning).

• Connectedness (Integrity, Empathy, and Trust).

• Sense of Purpose (Dedication & Passion).

I champion continuous growth, value deep connections and fostering a sense of belonging, and am passionate about inspiring others to pursue their passions while sharing my own.

4. Experiment with New Experiences

Volunteering, joining community groups, or picking up new hobbies could open new doors to meaningful contributions. This is an area I need to dig into more.

5. Connect with Others

This step aligns with my ongoing efforts to strengthen relationships and build community—topics I touched on in my last post.

6. Make a Difference

How can I leave an impact, even if it’s small, on someone’s life today? How can I help?

Perhaps my biggest impact could be with my children as mentioned earlier since they are a central focus of my life.

7. Practice Gratitude

A simple yet transformative habit I’m working to develop.

Overall, my self-reflection currently suggest my purpose being a blend of helping others grow, finding and sharing joy, and creating connections that leave the world a little brighter and more meaningful. Note that Marshall Goldsmith reminds us:

“Finding your purpose is not a one-time event but a continuous process of reflection and adaptation.”

There’s no single answer to what I was made for. But every day presents an opportunity to make the world—or someone’s life—better than it was yesterday.

Have you found your sense of significance? If not, try exploring these steps. Let’s figure it out together. After all, as Alexander Hamilton asks in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton:

“And when my time is up, have I done enough? Will they tell my story?”

As an introvert (one that expends energy in social situations), it takes a lot of energy management to stay connected with people. I used to think the path to happiness involved limiting contact with others. Although I still need my alone time, enough research highlights the importance of community and having a sense of belonging for me to ignore this need. 

“The clearest message that we get from this 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Period.”

- Robert Waldinger, director of  Harvard Study of Adult Development, psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital, and professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School

My family relationships do keep me happier.  There is no greater sense of peace, comfort, and happiness I experience than when I’m with my mom, even when we’re not doing anything.  My children’s joy fills my heart, especially when I see them l caring for each other. At the same time, I struggle with balancing attention between my three kids and wish I were closer to the family I grew up with.

Friendships are equally meaningful but harder to maintain, especially with young children demanding time and energy. Sharing more openly with close friends has been a mental health lifeline, but I often wonder how to cultivate deeper connections with them and with others.

Building Bonds Across Different Groups

To strengthen relationships, I’ve been considering how to nurture bonds in the different spheres of my life:

• Personal Relationships (Family + Friends I already see regularly)

• Professional Networks (Close coworkers + Colleagues I could develop friendships with)

• Acquaintances and Weak Ties (People in shared communities ie. parents of classmates, hobby groups, church small groups, or old friends + Strangers I meet in work or learning spaces)

I’m not always great at keeping in touch or initiating connections, but I’m often curious about what others are up to and what they’re like. Recently, I’ve realized that I should act on that curiosity rather than hold back, especially since people often tell me to push past my fear of what others might think. As Wayne Gretzky put it, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” I’ve come to see that making connections, no matter how small, can improve my happiness and well-being, so why not give it a shot?

Taking Steps to Deepen Connections

In addition to reaching out, I’ve been learning how to communicate more effectively. This involves:

• Becoming a more dynamic speaker for work and personal interactions.

• Practicing active listening.

• Improving storytelling to share more of myself and connect on a deeper level.

I’m also revisiting timeless advice from Dale Carnegie’s book How to Win Friends and Influence People, which emphasizes empathy, genuine appreciation, and effective communication. I’m beginning to see the power of these principles in action.

A New Mindset on “Productivity”

Recently, I told a friend:

“What did I do today? I did nothing. Just spoke with my best buddies from Insider and Teachstone. …That’s not nothing though. That’s what I’m supposed to do more of in life if I want to be happy in life. So today seemed unproductive but it’s actually more productive than I usually am.”

This realization marks a turning point. Time spent building relationships isn’t unproductive; it’s an investment in happiness and well-being.

Life has a way of making it hard to prioritize these things, but understanding their importance has helped me focus on them. It’s not just about staying healthy—it’s about fueling the energy we need to thrive. For me, success started with identifying my barriers, finding workarounds, and creating routines that are realistic for my life.

What works for me:

• Exercise: I’ve found that even 10 minutes of exercise 2-3 times a week makes a difference. I use the Nike Training app for quick, beginner-friendly workouts. I also enjoy wall climbing as my active hobby which I try to do 1-2 times a week. It feels incredible to reach the top of the wall or tackle a tougher route without running out of breath.

• Nutrition: I set a minimum goal of eating three meals a day, ideally balanced with fruits and veggies. Hydration is key—I’m lucky that water is my favorite drink! Meal planning is a work in progress, but I focus on simple, nutritious choices.

• Sleep: I aim to sleep before midnight, easing into a 10 p.m. bedtime whenever possible. I’ve had to delay prepping snacks and water bottles for the kids until the morning and leave the dinner dishes for the next day, but at least I’m able to go to sleep shortly after the kids do.

What motivates me:

• Exercise: Whenever I exercise, I feel like my mental and physical well-being both get a noticeable boost. Not only that but my mood also improves. It feels like a great accomplishment when I get some exercise in. When it’s climbing, I also get some fun and enjoyment out of it. I miss the days when I had the cardio to run a full game of ultimate frisbee or do a pull-up with ease. But my goal isn’t perfection—it’s progress. Even small wins, like breathing better after a workout, feel like reclaiming a bit of my prior physical abilities.

• Nutrition: I’ve always been a picky eater, but I’m becoming more mindful of my choices. As I get older, I can see my body showing signs of weakness, which motivates me to take better care of it. I want to rebuild my strength and prevent further decline, and I know that healthy eating will help me achieve that. It’s not just about feeling better now—it’s about ensuring I stay physically and mentally fit in the long run.

• Sleep: I started getting worried when I could no longer stay awake late to do chores. Instead, I’d crash early and wake up the next morning in a panic, realizing I hadn’t completed everything the night before. Sleep deprivation hits me hard—my thoughts feel muddled, I struggle to find the right words, and I’m slower to react. It also affects my memory, ramps up my stress, and leaves me physically drained. It’s clear that sleep is the solution to all of these problems, and prioritizing it makes me feel more energized and resilient.

In my research on happiness, I came across The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin. Like me, Rubin began her journey by focusing on energy and feeling physically and mentally fit. Writing about my own experiences has kept me accountable and helped me reflect on what really matters for happiness. I’m curious to see if my path will continue to mirror hers.

The next step? Building and nurturing relationships—another key to happiness.

You know there's more to life than just work.

Yet so much of your time is tied to it—what you need to get done this week, how to climb the career ladder, figuring out the right path. But someday, you might not have that job. Where will your happiness come from then?

What do you want to remember when you look back on your life?

Real happiness often comes from what’s outside the workplace:

• Significance: Achieving personal goals, nurturing meaningful relationships, and living with purpose.

• Belonging: Creating joyful memories with family, friends, and your community.

How you live your life directly shapes your happiness. Here’s how you can boost your well-being:

• Engaging Activities: Find your flow by getting lost in something you love. Physical activity also lifts your mood and overall wellness.

• Acts of Kindness and Altruism: Small moments of compassion bring immense joy—not just to others, but to you as well.

• Resilience and Adaptation: Life throws challenges, but overcoming adversity and adapting to change makes you stronger and happier.

It’s time to rethink how you spend your time. Balance your sources of happiness beyond work.

• Discover what brings you purpose and fulfillment by aligning your time with personal goals, meaningful relationships, and a sense of purpose.

• Spend more time with the people who matter most—family, friends, and your community.

• Incorporate physical activity into your routine and discover activities that truly engage you.

• Look for opportunities to show kindness to others.

• Build resilience by embracing life’s challenges and growing from them.

Happiness is about balance. Invest in what truly fulfills you.
