Colleagues, MVP: The solution to the problem is not always obvious. In teaching about how to use small change to solve big problems, I often use the example of a morning routine. The first time we meet, we identify the components of a healthy morning routine and then ask participants to implement them. The success rate is about 10%, so it is a great opportunity to dig into the root cause of “why can’t I implement a morning routine?” The photo below captures their answers from the first step of problem identification in which we capture possible reasons. In the next step we dig deeper into each “why”.
Where we inevitably land is that people have a tough time letting go of their work, which negatively impacts their sleep. In my latest training, participants identified a simple A-B step: For one week, take 10 minutes at the end of the day to journal all your thoughts. Could the answer to a healthier morning routine be journaling twelve hours before you get up? Maybe. And if it is not, what have we lost? This is working A-B. Cheers! Frederick
