Hustle and bustle. Go time. Check items off the list. Do do do.
Action is a magical default setting, but if we’re going to put our energy toward work that’s meaningful, we have to have observation time.
Unfortunately, observation time feels like a waste, especially for those that think they could be doing things instead of, well, not.
Observation time is vital, though. It helps us help others help themselves. It helps us determine what people really care about (not just what we assume they care about). It helps us do more of the right things and less of the wrong.
If you haven’t stopped, sat and watched the environment around your work in awhile, now’s a great time.
Stay Positive & See, And Listen
