    How it works

    For each section below, select Love, Like, or N/I (Not Interested) for each activity.

    Add anything extra in the open field at the end of each section.

    Love = 'It ain't work if you Love it' — you could do this all day.

    Like = 'Kinda like work but not really — I can do it' — some of the time.

    N/I = 'Not Interested" 'Not for me right now... NEXT!' — you can always revisit.

    Take your time.

    There are no wrong answers.

    Every Being matters. 🌱
