One area where it is highly useful for applying the “domains of agency” framework to oneself is to evaluate one’s agency in various life domains, and then focus on optimizing those areas that are going to be most helpful for your long-term goals, whatever they are. So for example, I have realized that my level of agency regarding self-regulation of eating is low, and have deliberately invested a lot of time and effort recently into changing my habits in food impulse control. Another area might be managing relationship ugh fields. So knowing specifically what areas you have low agency in can help you focus your energy on optimizing that specific area.
