What are ways you have maximized your agency in life?
Since I came across the concept of agency years ago (thanks to George Mack), it’s something I keep revisiting in my life: how can I make the most of my personal agency? There are obvious things, like having a bias toward taking action and taking extreme ownership of everything, but what less common things do you think help increase agency in life?
Here’s mine: having interesting hobbies, and doing and reading things purely for the joy of it, creates engaging topics of conversation that build deeper connections with people than staying on the surface level. And it’s a way to make things happen to you. A person of high agency is always an interesting person.
Do you have any similar examples that have helped you have more agency in your life?
