In and Out of the Moment

I love those pieces where they start – “There are two types of people…” – at this rate there are more than two because so many have been written on different topics.  Perhaps we have a way of classifying people in our heads and that is where this comes from? So here are mine – Those that live in the Moment and those that live Outside of it. Living In the Moment These are people that exist in that moment, there is nothing else around them.  If something is going wrong, they want everything to stop and to figure it

Commit To Your Questions

Questions are great – sit down with people, discuss a problem, get some feedback from them, perhaps some questions on points you might have skipped over that need to be better elaborated on – they can help.  Here the question serves not only as a commitment to helping you grow but a guide to where to go next.

The Final Straw

Conflict in the workplace is nothing new – there is always someone you are not going to get along with, not see eye to eye with, butt heads with, etc, etc.  We’ve all worked with those people that we think are coasting through the day, leaving their work to others to pick up and take on. There are two paths to handling this situation – either confront them about it and find ways to work with them to make it better or walk away.
