Nir Eyal advises scheduling weekly time to "live out" your values by blocking specific time for activities that reflect the person you want to become (examples: reading, exercise, and social media). He emphasizes that some activities may not be enjoyable but should still be scheduled if they align with personal values and identity.

Chapters

So the first thing I do when I make my schedule for the week is I make sure I have time to live out my values in accordance with how the person I want to become takes care of themselves. So time for reading, time for exercise. Not that I necessarily enjoy all these things. Like, for example, I exercise, but I don't really like exercise. But it's part of my values to take care of my health. And so if one of your values is to take care of your health, if one of your values is to be the kind of person who learns, that has to be in your schedule. As well as time for social media. I have social media time scheduled in my day. Yeah. So it's just a matter of figuring out what you want to do with your time and making sure that time is blocked out in accordance.
