No Time to Think

The business world is full of conflict, pressure and competition. We focus on the competing companies or the economy, but seldom do we realize that time--or lack of taking time--causes more problems than anything else.

Our technologies keep us in the know 24/7 and we allow them to rob us of the solitude that humans need to thrive. That hour of focus time without interruption could save hundreds of hours or make millions of dollars.

Stop. Exhale. Think. Can't hurt, can it?

What Were You Thinking?

A teenager races his car and crashes.
A 10-year old Little Leaguer neglects to run home to score a run with two outs.
A presentation is not checked for typos or errors and is filled with them.
A purchasing agent reneges on an agreement with a supplier.

Feelings are hurt, lives are at risk, games are lost, opportunities are thrown away...
What were they thinking? Too often the answer is:
They weren't thinking at all.

Think.
