I had a conversation with a hardware engineer whose organization got the mandate, “Go agile or bust!” They're attempting to manage their technical and schedule risk with two-week iterations. And, they're trying to show finished product , not simulations. And, even though they work independently, they're supposed to have a standup every day.

James Clear, entrepreneur and author, says that the way we go about trying to form new habits and break bad ones — at work or home — is all wrong. Many people, he says, focus on big goals without thinking about the small steps they need to take along the way. Just like saving money, habits accrue compound interest: when you do 1% more or different each day or week, it eventually leads to meaningful improvement.

It’s hard to look right at it. The possibility that lies before us, the chance to connect, to lead, to be heard–it’s bigger than it’s ever been. Tempting indeed to avert your eyes, because staring into infinity means embracing just how small we feel. We avert our eyes because to realize how much potential we have to contribute puts us on the hook.

On this episode of the Leadership Vision podcast, Brian Schubring, our founder and president talks about how to understand what our Strengths need to thrive and what they need to survive. We have found that you’ve reached a deeper level of awareness when you’re able to articulate exactly what your Strengths need in both of these situations. Thriving and surviving may seem like contradictory or even opposite states of being, but actually, we’ve found them to be more similar than different.

Last week, on Christmas day, we met men and women such as Hector in his flimsy tent, Dopar from Sudan, William from Cleveland’s east side, living on the streets since age 12, Rico, a delusional felon and countless others who survive the harsh winters on the streets and in shelters. 80% addicted to deadly street drugs with no way out.

The Amtrak Acela is capable of going well over a hundred miles an hour. And yet, it’s not unusual for a 90-mile ride on the Acela to be only three or four minutes shorter than it would be on a more traditional train. I can drive my Prius from NY to Syracuse faster than I can fly there. Even though a plane has been engineered to have a much higher top speed, the door to door costs of travel (security theatre, parking, checking in, the rest of the last mile once I land) aren’t impacted

In between the holidays, it all seems to slow down. Most days, there is little traffic on the road (or on websites). Fewer products launched, fewer inbound emails, fewer things to check off a todo list. And yet, if someone in 1820 had lived at the pace we live in December 2019, she would probably have dropped dead from exhaustion. A store in New York that feels slow this time of year might be recording record traffic if it had the same turnout in Scottsdale or Tempe.

The architecture of the internet is about choice. That’s where the resilience comes from. Email can take one of a trillion paths to get from me to you. You have millions of pages to choose from when you want to read a blog post or learn a programming concept. On the other hand, the business of the internet is often about no choice. Investors seek organizations that create natural monopolies, businesses with such significant network effects that they can clear the board and create infinite

I’ll only use that 2020 riff once. But it was on-point enough to have been worth waiting for ever since I got my first eye exam. For most of us, 2020 is going to be a turning point. Because it’s another chance to live tomorrow over again. A chance to reset, to decide what’s important and what’s worth working for. Not a New Year’s resolution, because resolve is often in short supply.
