Every blogger it seems, needs to say something important about the New Year–me too. I have a couple posts I want to write, but this first one is easy…
I’ve not made a list of goals (yet), or changed any behaviors (tho I am thinking of a few). What I have started doing is cutting things. Unsubscribing to some newsletters and a few blogs, deciding to give up a couple projects/tasks, and trying to quit a couple distractions that aren’t in my goals (like playing America’s Army).
This morning I started unsubscribing to a newsletter and noticed that ‘cutting’ was Level 4 of the Seven Levels of Change posted on my desk (and here linked to my nearly forgotten-but-not-cut ’40-days of purpose blog’). Interesting that I also found a post there regarding cutting with this nifty thought: “How much does one cut?”
Someone here at the office is having their dog put to sleep this morning. That is a deep cut, and maybe not even voluntary, but it makes you think.
>>>This activity of mine is just a habit that I heard mentioned in David Allen’s Ready For Anything
wow, it really does put new year changes into perspective when someone has to put their dog to sleep.
