Thought Tweet #967

by Rick Baker
On Apr 1, 2014

Thought Tweet #967 Time management tip: file files. Their name lets us know what we are supposed to do with them.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Well...that is why they call them files isn't it?

I mean - those things don't have that name because of some other qualities...shouldn't we do our part to help them live up to their name yet not be confused with their less-flexible, more-abrasive cousins?

Good Habits - good working habits - take time to grow and take hold.

Band-aids stop the bleeding when we keep the cuts small enough. And a series of band-aids is better than a series of bleeding cuts.

Better to implement a small, workable Solution now than delay action while waiting for the arrival of a more-complete, proven solution.

People Do Only 3 Things: Good Habits, Bad Habits, & New Things.

If you are doing something and you know it is not working then you have identified a Bad Habit...i.e., a habit that is not taking your closer to your goals. To get on the right track, the track that takes you toward you goals, you can either create the proven Good Habit or you can try a New Thing. If the New Thing works and you repeat doing it then that New Thing becomes your Good Habit. If the New Thing does not work and you have your eyes and ears open to learn from the experience then the New Thing becomes a step toward a Good Habit.
