Need to take my own advice
When I decided to add a blog to my website I tried to be real about how often I could enter a new post. I decided that a good weekly post should suffice to keep me active with clients and others. As you can see by my recent posts, they have slipped beyond the once-per-week schedule I set for myself.
Thinking, reading and writing are fun, but since I need to pay my bills I also conduct workshops on Critical and Strategic Thinking. And in the course of conducting each workshop I always talk about the need to actually schedule time to think and reflect. My pitch is that “If you don’t schedule it, time will slip away and you will miss the opportunity.”
Hmmm, it seems that I need to actually schedule writing a weekly post. Otherwise the opportunity will slip away. (As it has.)
That’s my confession and my resolution.
What’s important in your life that you say you’ll accomplish “one of these days?” Will it happen if you don’t schedule it? Think about it.
