Career Crafting - Discover what you value through experiments

The three-step framework for career crafting involves figuring out what you value, determining the cost, and deciding if you're willing to make the trade. To figure out what you value, try the shower test or the free time test. Experiment by trying out different activities and reflect on whether they give you energy or feel like a chore. People who don't know what they value usually haven't done many experiments. It doesn't have to be perfect or long-term; just try it for a little bit and see if it energizes you. Reflecting and asking the hard questions is important to uncover what you truly value. Giving yourself free time can lead to rediscovering forgotten passions and finding new interests.

The more experiments you do, the more you learn and discover new ideas and avenues that give you energy.
