I think Meetings get a completely unfair rap for what they are and what comes from them. It’s not the meeting’s fault if you hold a good one or a bad one. It’s your fault. Oh wait, that’s why they get a bad rap because it’s easier to blame the meeting than to blame yourself. Maybe there is a way out of that? Check out – Big. Bad. Meetings.

If development has yet to start, they are not Change Requests. They are requirements that were left out. They are a cause for concern because the delivery is changing before it can be built. They are a moment to pause and ask the customer what problem you are really trying to solve. They can be the start of a conversation to get back on track. But they should never be accepted verbatim because at this point they are not changes to the project, they are redefining what is being delivered.

Beating the competition without even trying isn’t a win, it’s a loss. It’s a loss because you are not showing up to do your best work but rather to do the work that is “okay” and “passable”. That feeling of winning will last for another 15 minutes. But giving your all and losing? Trying to raise your game that much more and not quite getting there? That’s worth it because now you’re getting better, smarter, faster and stronger. Now you’re making a difference, now it’s fun.
