A sample richness map
Most people measure their lives by happiness or meaning. Psychologists have found something more complete: richness, a life full of diverse, perspective-changing experiences. You can be happy on autopilot and find meaning in a narrow lane. Richness takes the whole map.
This assessment draws on five bodies of peer-reviewed research. Some questions ask about your whole life so far, others about right now, and each one tells you which.
Based on: Oishi & Westgate, "A Psychologically Rich Life" (Psychological Review, 2022) · The Harvard Grant Study, 87 years of longitudinal data on what predicts flourishing · Erikson's psychosocial stages on generativity and legacy · Buettner's Blue Zones research on the world's longest-lived communities · Experiential Diversity Theory on how variety of experience predicts resilient aging (Psychology and Aging, 2024)
"This was a quick but meaningful gauge of where I am. It enabled me to identify in a meaningful way my successes with richness of life -- and my opportunities. I was surprised my soul wasn't better. I recommend it to anyone looking to assess and expand the richness of their life."
