Simple Wisdom Tip #167: A Key Question

Recently I have been asking my coaching clients a key question which is: What should I be doing more of – or less of – to improve the quality my life?  Or you could limit it to one’s work life.  It’s a question we should all ask ourselves periodically.  And then, of course, once we have the answer, we should implement it rigorously.  If you want your life – or your work life – to be even better, this is a great way to make it so.

 

Why don’t you give it a try.

Simple Wisdom Tip #166: Planning for Success

Today I facilitated an update to a strategic plan that this organization (my client) does every single year;  it’s a wonderful practice!  I have been working for this nonprofit for over 10 years and have shared with their staff many times:  there are only three things that individuals and organizations need to do to be successful:

 

1.    Decide what you want.  Most organizations and nearly all individuals, in my opinion, never intentionally decide what they want to be, achieve or have.

2.    Make a plan to achieve it.  Plans must be in writing.

3.    Implement the plan.  As a colleague once said, “implementation is everything.”

 

That’s all there is to it.  Why don’t you give it a try.
