Be a “Do” Leader
This is one of the few hours in the week that’s entirely yours, and it’s a chance for you to step back so that you can step forward. You can decide to continue to be the hero and make every meeting and hop on every plane, but you’re not going to be seen as the hero. You’re still going to be dinged for these things that you need to work on.
Where do you go to (deep) think?
In a meta-move by Nitzan, we not only had more time and space to have a spacious conversation on his pod Being in Space (along with Linda Booth Sweeney and guided by generosity, patience, and some real mind-tickler questions from Creative Surplus)… but both Linda and I also shared where we both do our deeper, more spacious thinking (for me: night time, fall & winter - all three as literal calendar/times, as well as figurative energies).
I'm sharing this conversation here as a reminder and gift of patience to/with myself and others.
