@PatrickMoorhead Haha — just prioritizing my time. :)

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

I'm not spending much time here these days. You can find me on IG, FB, Bsky, etc.

@tom_peters 👍👍

This completes an intergenerational family arc, given that my father handed me his paperback of In Search of Excellence to read when I was a teenager in the 1980s. 🙂

@tom_peters I thought you might like to know that my whipsmart 23yo son — finishing a degree in philosophy, politics, & economics with an eye on international business — pinged me this week about the Lockheed Martin skunkworks. My entry point for introducing him to your work! :)

@BamaWriter One of the reasons I like this one so much is the unglamorous target. Not every heist needs to be Fort Knox, right?

@panagis21 Dr. G. [years later]: “ . . . And THAT’s why we now sing during grand rounds.”

[Dr. Julie Gurner @drgurner]

To operate effectively through a crisis:
Focus sharply on the *one thing* you can do next.

Paralysis comes when people sit in emotion & overwhelm.

"One thing" mindset begins motion - with a simple, clear foot forward.

Do one thing...recenter, do another & keep going.

@CashAppRecords You’re welcome. Very elegant, yet also . . . *yowza*.

@NoreenMasud So at least a couple of things in this picture are definitely haunted, right?

Live your eulogy

@DADiClementi Also, as much as I respect Arness, O'Connor (prob. the best *actor* here), and Garner (LOVE him), . . . do all of them belong above Michael Landon? *And* Ted Danson?

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

@DADiClementi The lack of Mary Tyler Moore or Alan Alda in the top 10 is . . . concerning.

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

@MathewJLyons @MartinPengelly Possibly my favorite movie ever. I look forward to reading this piece!

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

@MR_Roberts_INC @TenJustMen @Culture_Crit I had the same thought. The forms changed, but we *didn't* stop building wonders, even in just the narrow sense of architectural wonders. We've built many more wonders on top of that in terms of art, literature, science, communications, and transport.

@TaraSkurtu This is me in a nutshell. I've had enough experience with editorial work (and the corporate world, hiring and firing, online dating, etc.) to know that rejection/acceptance is mostly about fit — finding its good home, as you say — rather than any comment on me.

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

@charleijeanr2 This is a bold statement, Char.

[Tim Walker, traveling light @TWalk]

Well I'M hyped. 🙌
