3. Write a life plan
The result of step 1 is your end goal, where you are now is your starting point. What lies in between is what you need to do to reach your end goal. Record that in a personal strategy and you have your life plan, on an A4.
A fun thought exercise here (and a test to see if you really got the gist) is to summarize your life plan as a hashtag of maximum 3 words. For example #writingchef for a food blogger.
In addition to the approach described above to come to a to don't list for your own life, you can of course also apply this in daily life. The idea of the to don't list also includes a free app (only for iPhone, the one for Android is still on the to don't list).
Life hacks at the office
Don't read this book (aff.) also describes a number hospital cfo email list of life hacks for the office and projects.
Be careful with mail
Calling is better than emailing because you prevent your action from provoking a reaction, and so on.
If you do send an email, limit your text to five lines, with the core being the need to know details and the call to action. Nothing more.
Cooperation
If you want to achieve effective and meaningful collaboration, it only works in 2 cases.
Same mindset vs Doing the same -> Don't
Same mindset vs Doing different things -> Do!
Different mindset vs Doing the same -> Do!
Different mindset vs Doing different things -> Don't
So, at the start of a project, think about what kind of project it is and what the team composition is. It will quickly give you an idea of whether the project will work or is doomed to failure. An example is that four carpenters ( same mindset ) who are asked to design a new door ( doing the same ) would probably not design a revolving door. While adding someone with a different mindset could lead to that outcome.
