Me, Me, Do Me First!


"Never step over one duty to perform another."

English proverb

Another one of those on the surface "I get it" thoughts, but think about it just a bit more.

Little of what most of us must do is clearly sequential; we must prioritize to know what to do first and even that often changes.

How do you know what to do, when?

  1. I subscribe to the "Squeaky Wheel School of Management". Whatever makes the most noise gets my attention. Not elegant but it works for me.

  2. Do you ever find times where there are too many "squeaky wheels" to listen to all at once?
