“Do you know your LQ?”

Season 7 Episode 11

This is the final episode for this season.

And I’m talking about your LQ.

Your LQ is your Lifestyle Quotient.

It’s a measure of how much priority you give to your Lifestyle.

I talk about IQ, EQ and now LQ

I reflect on the importance of numbers in helping us to measure progress

I explore the Hawthorne effect – the way your behaviour changes because you are being watched – and how this is a good thing when tracking your own data.

1. The one question I ask is “Do you know your LQ?

2. The two references I look at are:

Mcdowell, I. Measuring Health: a guide to rating scales and questionnaires. Oxford University Press. 2006

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Measuring-Health-rating-scales-questionnaires/dp/0195165675

Levitt, S. D, and List, J.A. Was there really a Hawthorne Effect at the Hawthorne Plant? An analysis of the original illumination experiments. American Economics Journal of Applied Economics. 2011. 3: 224-248

3. The three actions to take are

· Take the LQ test – you can find it on my website at

https://dralkapatel.com/lq-test/

· Tag me on social media with the hashtag #I KnowMyLQ and decide what actions you need to take to optimise your score at a walk today

· Invite your friends and family to take the test and then plan actions together, cheerlead each other along the way, check in with each other and introduce the LQ into your workplace as part of your approach to Workplace Wellbeing
