  • How much of the information we process every day, and the communications we participate in (with varying degrees of engagement), actually provides us with useful (actionable) knowledge and useful capacities? Very little, I would argue. Just as most of our processed and 'fast' foods give us mostly empty calories and nothing of nutritional value (and lots that is toxic), so too, most of our information 'diet' is empty entertainment, designed to make us feel better without actually making us intellectually 'healthier' (and sometimes making us intellectually unhealthy).

    Change management 'experts' will tell you that to bring about behaviour change you have to do one of three things: (a) change mandatory processes, (b) change the technology people use, or (c) change the culture/attitudes/beliefs/values. I know a lot of people who've worked in organizations for more than a quarter century, and they tell me that (a) process is dead -- there are no standard processes anymore, so you can't 'change' them, (b) people will simply refuse to use technology that makes them do things they find ineffective or unintuitive, and (c) the only way you can change an organizational 'culture' is by firing everyone and hiring all new people who agree with a proposed change.

  • Dan Sullivan (The Strategic Coach) teaches us about three types of days: Focus day:  A day when 65-85 percent of your time is spent during your work day doing activities that generate income. Buffer day:  This is a day where the majority of your time is spent handling the "behind the scenes" or administrative functions necessary to support your income-generating activities. Free day:  This is a full 24-hour period during which you do NO work or work-related activities, including checking voice mail or email.
  • 1. In order to plan an activity, I consciously think about WHY I am doing it. Here are some questions that I ask myself: Is this activity moving me towards or away from my core goals for the year? Will this activity generate income? Is this activity a necessary part of supporting my core activities? If this is a support activity, is it something I can delegate to someone else so I can have more free or focus time?
