Research on Recharging Activities & Choosing Energizing Strengths in Work

The penultimate chapter of the book discusses the importance of recharging and shares four key elements that make certain activities energizing. These elements are turned into the mnemonic C-A-L-M: competence, autonomy, liberty, and mellow. By prioritizing these activities, individuals can make their work more efficient and effective. It is suggested to identify the tasks that bring energy and those that drain it, and focus on the strengths that give energy. By choosing one or a few strengths to be known for, individuals can intentionally incorporate them into their daily work and build their personal brand. This intentional approach involves considering how to use these strengths in different situations, with different people and departments. Ultimately, by consciously focusing on these strengths, individuals can shape their professional identity and make themselves valuable in their chosen field.
