Easy repeatable question to apply agile software principles to your life/dreams/desires/purpose/goals:

“What does done look like?”

Define done. Visualise the outcome. Break it down into small steps. Complete the first step.

People were amazed that Rails World sold out in 30 minutes, but I'm quite sure it would have sold out in less than 10 minutes if people hadn't been able to hold on to tickets for 10 minutes before abandoning checkout and releasing those to people who actually went on to buy.

Word of the week: initiative.

“getting on with the things that need to be done.”

The more initiative you show, the luckier you’ll get.

[Graham Sherry 🦥 @grahamsherry]

ASAP. As Simple As Possible.

Be considered in what you build, think about what’s required to maintain it.

Works as much for four walls as for software.

Simple wins.

Good thread…

ATTN: Coaches, therapists, performance experts, etc.

What are your favorite questions or reflection prompts?

Some examples:

- Imagine you hire a highly competent person to be CEO of your life tomorrow, what’s the first thing they would change?

- From @BarrettABrooks: Imagine a person who sparks jealousy or envy. What does this person have that I want but haven’t yet admitted to myself?Or what do I feel embarrassment about that is reflected in this person?

- Assume that more than one path exists to achieve your ideal life. What would some of the alternative routes look like?

What would you add?

Although it could be construed as being a bit light hearted, I really do feel my job title encourages me to live by my values.

Dress for the job you want.

I think kids naturally really get this, it’s why they play dress up.
