Colleagues,
Another way to find five minutes: stop yourself from taking care of someone else’s monkey! You are a leader, and you get stuff done, so many people are happy to let you do their stuff for them. They want you to take care of their monkeys! Next time someone asks you to do something that really isn’t your job, you can respond in several ways:
If all of these things fail, ask the person to form a committee. You will never hear about it again! Cheers! Frederick

Colleagues,
Yesterday I asked you to find five minutes. Did you? Here are five ways to find five minutes:
Choose one and let me know how it goes. Cheers! Frederick Colleagues,
The rest of this week I’m going to help you to find five minutes a day. When all our time is spent on urgent stuff, how can we do the important stuff? They key is to not try to create 50 minutes a day to focus on the important things. Find five minutes. Five isn’t much, but it is better than 0. Finding five minutes is possible, whereas finding 50 may not be. How to find five minutes? For the rest of the day, think about the things you are doing and figure out where you could find five minutes. Cheers! Frederick Colleagues,
Mara here! Happy Monday! I moved to Colorado for the winter with the main intention of learning how to snowboard. Along the way, I learned a lot more than just that. Learning to snowboard is hard, and it’s even harder when you don’t have snow for weeks on end. Without the support and comfort of the soft snow, it is hard to take risks, to grow, and to gain confidence. Leaders can create that soft snow for people to take risks! This week, I challenge you to create snow where you can (even though I’m sure many of us are happy spring is here). Maybe someone will feel supported enough to take a risk. Sending sunshine, Mara Colleagues,
Here are four little changes we can make instead of four big ones:
If you MUST do big change, go for it. Just make it optional for everyone else. Cheers! Frederick |
