I find that knowing:
- What is NOT right
- What we DON'T want
- What is NOT interesting
- Where we DON'T what to go
- What we DON'T want to spend time doing
- The actions that WON'T lead to success
is really, really helpful when trying to generate breakthroughs. Culling the list of good things to do to the two or three great things to do is a talent. And it takes resolve, courage, and discipline.
What should not be on your list?
You have one hour that - if used wisely - can catalyze forward movement and progress. what's the best way to use this time? Start with a big list of ideas and then start culling.....
Uncommit - decommit - not sure what the right word would be - from a project that is no longer a good use of time and is getting in the way of your focus and progress.
Focus on NOT today.
This is great strategy. I've used something similar with clients and at first they just look at me. Then they do similar things to what you recommend here and - bingo - energy and time and passion and hope are released.
Life gets better!
