Must get ahead of her

Different version of third choice.

 

Must get ahead of her. She works several hours a day, sometimes more, and is steadily getting things done. She burns through the project list and ends up having to wait on me to make a decision(s) before she can proceed. Really need to stay ahead of her, since i’m spending money while she waits.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

The clearer you are the better your results

Disney Patient Satisfaction Keynote Speakers
We filled the seats (300-400 each time) twice a day for two consecutive days, two to three times a year.

 

The clearer you are the better your results.

We assume if we cover the stuff in orientation that it will stick.

How’s that working out for you?

We remind the team in our annual company meeting and assume it will help.

How’s that working out.

All day.

Everyday.

All three shifts.

Every employee.

Imagine if you could instantaneously say in priority order, “Here are our top three priorities.”

Can you imagine this?

To get there you need to be…

Driven.

Focused.

Relentless.

Nothing disconnects a willing employee faster (and longer) than holding them accountable for something they didn’t realize was more important than what they thought you meant was most important.

Nothing sabotages world class customer service faster than a disengaged employee who thinks their leader is clueless.

Taking care of things serves us well

Apple OS X El Capitan upgrade
Helping someone move from PC to Mac yesterday.

 

Taking care of things serves you well. Common knowledge, not common practice.

mind • body • spirit • work • home

Life’s five big choices.

These are the basic priorities that must be addressed daily in order to thrive.

And each of the five will have sub-priorities.

This is yours to figure out.

It is different, yet similar, for every human.

Word of caution (and huge note to self)

Apple Store entrance
Does technology help or hinder? Depends how we manage our priorities and time, no?

 

Do not tire of almost always being the initiator. It’s a compliment. It means you are decently organized and have your priorities clearly before you at all times.

Word of caution (and huge note to self), be intentional about not having these two attributes become embarrassing for others.

Most people are buried. And they can barely keep up.

i know, i battle it every day the sun rises, and it lasts until after the sun sets.

Working vacations are necessary sometimes

Working vacations are under rated and over rated.

Just like exerting the lifetime effort (personal leadership) to stay healthy and active. Or to opt for ‘relaxing, taking it easy, and enjoying life’ at the expense of exertion.

The key is to take enough vacations so that the odds equal out that some are working vacations and some are not.
