you are jolted out of your routine and it is tough syncing back..
Do it .. fast..
because the world has not stopped moving in the meanwhile..
Category: Everything else
When you have many many learnings from an intense week..
or a period of time.. good to crystallize them into 3 key next steps you can follow! :)
3) If I try to catch two monkeys at the same time
I will miss both! Think before you act. Slow it down. Focus on EVERY email, every little task done and THINK
2)Speak scarcely – scarcity=value
1 bullet to hit the target. Don’t stop speaking but zone to scarceness. Remember frog in boiling water..
1)Give attention to taking attention syndrome..
Understand that it is in myself to try and take attention. It is not my fault nor is it anybody else’s. Give this tendency to take attention attention myself(yeah, a bit confusing) and hence, not let it get out…
Let us remember to thank the lord..
once a while..
even when we are in trouble..
Rather be consistent and miss the consistency
once in a blue moon..rather than be perenially inconsistent..
Take notes..
when you read.. if thats your learning style..
Its all about the environment..
all we need to do as a leader is take care of the environment!
Always make change slowly..
Remember the frog in boiling water strategy..
‘Frog in Boiling Water’ strategy: Remember the story about the frog that jumped into boiling water? Of course, the frog jumped right out of the boiling water immediately. However, the frog jumped next into cold water, and was very happy, but the water temperature was being raised very slowly over time. After some hours this water was boiling – and the frog never jumped out!
Maybe there are 2 learnings here:
1. How not to be the frog getting cooked very slowly – I don’t know how to do this, I think it can be potentially by being be very sensitive to trends for e.g. the US economy over the past years!
2. How to a catch a frog for a hot soup – e.g. implementing change very slowly – like increase your prices by 1% each month!
