While I didn’t expand my reach, I enjoyed the discipline of daily, concise writing. It was a great way to close out 2022. Best wishes to all in the coming year!

Proud to have completed the #tweet100 challenge! Thanks @jayclouse for championing this program.

3. Clarify WHY you are tweeting.

Start an account with tweets mapped to a mission, such as “I help [a certain audience] do [achieve a specific goal].”

My random musings had less impact than my #tweet100 peers who focused on one concept, like email marketing or UX design.

People notice:

- Who wins awards
- Who gets promoted
- Who is celebrated in all-hands meetings

Do these people reflect your #CompanyValues? What you praise is what you get. Reward wisely. #tweet100

Make people more important than time.

(Except when it's end of year. For this season, get all #TimeSheets submitted before departing for your holiday.)

This article from @coffinlifebuoy summarizes many of the thoughts I've had while exploring #ChatGPT.

This reminds me of the quote, “you’re the average of the five people you’re closest to.” Choose your inner circle wisely. #tweet100

Cultivate people in your life whose normal behavior is your desired behavior.

If new to leadership, surround yourself with a variety of voices and heed the wisdom of those who have dealt with similar problems before. Rehoboam was too quick to defer to his inexperienced friends. #tweet100

Read 2 Chronicles 10 for a good list of the common mistakes that young males tend to make in leadership.

Know your people so you can know their needs. Different team members respond to different #incentives. The beauty of a small company is you can tailor your approach to uniquely invest in every person. #tweet100

Enjoyed the mindless escape of @InspiredSquare’s 2248 for the past month. Clearing blocks has a cleansing effect after a long day of problem solving.

Now that I’ve cycled through the alphabet one time, I need to delete this app and get back to work! #tweet100
