Why you should be a gift to yourself.
All in Leadership
How the City of Milwaukee could make you want to pay a parking ticket?
And, how we could turn Wisconsin Avenue into a boulevard.
What if you knew how your taxes were spent, would you pay more?
And, why aren’t you doing more things that are bonkers?!
A Quick Question.
And a penny for your thoughts.
Why illogical thinking might lead to a better result.
Or, the case for the absurd.
Little, thoughtful details, add delight.
Sometimes simpler is better.
Why finding the average doesn't help anybody.
What can be measured gets managed - and more often than not, poorly.
When you focus too much on it, you'll lose sight.
So stop, take a broader view, and home in.
People make sense when you realize that they don't make sense.
Don’t try to understand the understandable. Instead, listen, be intuitive, and abandon logic.
Is peace a primal emotion?
No, but fear is. What are you doing to combat fear?
Is simple better?
Life can already get pretty complicated. Perhaps embracing simplicity is a better option.
You have 1000 things to do but no time.
You can have your cake and eat it, too.
Piece by piece.
But, what if it works?
You’ll actually have to do the work.
The language we use matters!
Use words that create accountability.
The Art of Decisions
The Decision Series has come to an end, for now ;-)
If you found these insights useful to you, please share this blog with others. We need to build a tribe of people who are self-motivated to improve their lives, to create better art, and never to allow "good enough" to be okay.
Start with Failure.
If you have doubts, leverage them - consider what would happen if your efforts failed.
See Balance.
Seeing only the long game doesn't help, but seeing only the short can be ruinous.
There is a special place for the Bobs, the Truths, and the Bulls in this world. We offer a useful counterbalance. For those like us, consider these tactics to help you come across better to those you seek to serve.
