BLESSINGS IN MASK1/18/2021 Everyday, people are moving on with their lives. They are getting married, having babies, building companies, hiring people, and trying to make a living.
If there's one consolation we can derive from another extended lockdown- we don't have to meet people, we don't want to meet. We don't want to waste our time in meetings that go nowhere. We don't have to fall in line in stores when we know we can buy online. We don't have to drive or ride a plane to get to seminars, workshops, conferences. But we want to, we will make a way for things to happen. If you're not moving on, you are resisting the flow of action. Contradictions rule our time. Everything is in flux, including yourself. Go with flow and welcome uncertainty as a given.

CONNECT YOUR TRACKS1/14/2021 Everyday my daughter and I would walk outside in the snowy yard and do all kinds of fun games. She likes to walk and create new tracks which she would then connect together. We need to connect our actions with what's going on with the world, the natural environment, and people systems. We need to connect what we're thinking with our customers and adjust service offerings with their needs. We need to connect with other people and actors in our space not because we need them, but we can help and find synergy. We need to build linkages with other sectors and industries which normally do not work together or seem to be opposite or in direct competition. These are areas to be mined for opportunities to provide a win-win solution. We need to connect as leaders and managers to our self-awareness and tap into the potential for creative expression inside and outside of our work. There are many reasons to feel connected and be connected with. If you're in isolation, look into the mirror.

GREENLIGHT YOUR MOVES1/11/2021 In the last 6 months, I learned that there's no way that the epidemic or the conservative responses to the epidemic could help any forward-looking organizations get back on its track or even pursue innovation, if it's just looking at what everyone's doing.
There's no need to wait for someone or something to happen to greenlight what you want to accomplish in the next 6 months. Either, this pandemic will pass like other flus in a natural way with the vaccine as a first-rate preventative tool or not. It's a given. If you have the resolve to change the road you're walking on, change. If you want to continue but adjust, adjust well. Act on them now and let the chips fall off. Better yet, build your own roads, streets, or traffic lights. Don't look behind your shoulder because there's no one there, except your shadow. The most important of all: Take care of yourself and be kind to others. |
