CC Minus 525: Rollercoaster Workshops

Started the day off with renewed optimism for the activities we were working on, the challenge of a new program, an eager group and a fresh slate. No time pressure to deliver the product. Smart brains on the task. Was this the same weary, cynical person that went to bed last night?

The ugly cynic and familiar weariness started to appear by early afternoon. By mid-afternoon we were all losing focus, energy, optimism and allowing fatigue, confusion and 'can-to do it' thinking to seep in through the cracks.

What could I have done to better support the group?

• stay OUT of my email
• stay OFF of IM
• listen more actively
• reflect and clarify where we are

Bottom-line ==> Be MORE PRESENT !!! I knew that. You need to invest to get more out of it.

Tomorrow is another chance to start again. Stay tuned .....
