#whendecisions A7 I used to believe a book based on research would be very dry. Now I believe that it can be entertaining as well as enlightening!

#whendecisionsA6 If the group synchronizes (on 3 levels; boss, tribe, heart) we leave our ego at the door.

[Nancy Lemay @NancyLemay4]

Yes, great observation.

A6: #whendecisions Many of the activities suggested for synchronization remind me of Morning Meeting games which are useful during Morning Meetings but could also be used to break up the afternoon or to mark a midpoint.

Q5 #whendecisions Resonating words for me: "consciously creating an elevating final experience"/ "The very end of an experience seems to disproportionately affect our memories of it." New habit4me: each day consciously send kinds out the door with words that will elevate!

Thanks. …. a great habit to get into!

A4: midpoints - loved this chapter - am going to shout out and celebrate 1/2 points of trimesters and SY to spark urgency and excitement. Find this info explained a bit about winter down trends! #whendecisions

#whendecisions Q4: I use the midpoint of the marking period as an alert to my goals and data. To make sure i'm staying on track and the kiddos are moving forward.

whendecisionsQ4 I loved this chapter! So many strategies for me to help with the January slump. I"ll try telling someone about a goal so that I reach it when I should.

A3: The "what" often has a false sense of urgency that outweighs "when". We end up creating stressful,unrealistic deadlines. #whendecisions

Q3 I would agree with the statement in Q3. What I really liked about this chapter is the positive thinking of a "fresh start". I am hoping, for myself, that this way of thinking can give me a boost when I otherwise would focus on the negative of a false start.

Q2 #whendecisions Afternoons are the trough time for most of us so staff meetings are tough after school. Maybe a slideshow of nature and its sounds as we all come in (as a backdrop) and get settled would help as a micro-break.

#whendecisions"A1: The 24 hour rule is a good one. Now I will take what I've learned abut troughs and peaks and use that also when deciding when to respond. Likewise, I am aware now to reread certain emails at peak times.
