I am reflecting on an excellent #IoDSurrey Branch meeting this morning on Scenario Planning and have just placed a high priority in my task management system on writing a post on this subject based on my initial brain dump and some of my training work with clients on Strategic Thinking and Strategic Planning.

For now, though, a simple ‘Mayburyism’ prompted by my thoughts this morning to get the ball rolling. If you have heard me speak or attended any of my training sessions you will undoubtly have heard me say:

‘The quality of the question determines the quality of the outcome – always!’ Richard Maybury

‘The only thing we can truly manage is where we choose to put our focus and our energy moment to moment’ – Richard Maybury

We don’t have time to get too philosophical here. Let’s boil it down. The economy is the economy, the market is the market, the target is the target and the workload is the workload. How we choose to see and respond to these elements define our meaning, our purpose, our priorities, our effort and our definition of our success.

No one else can do this for us and we can’t do it for anyone else. All we can do is help or hinder each other in generating that meaning, motivation and energy to drive the necessary effort to achieve our goals. 

I would suggest that now, more than ever before, we must work on sharpening our focus and energy management skills so that we can make the most of the opportunities before us and work purposefully and positively on what means most to us.

I’m curious to know what you think about this, on a learning journey it is good to share insights and hindsights, so feel free to do so…….

‘Too late is too easy when we are too free with our time’ – Richard Maybury

How often do you deliver a critical result by the skin of your teeth because others did not deliver on their earlier commitments to you? How often have you made a deadline only by a Herculean last minute effort? Why do these things happen? Simple, because you – and everyone else you depend upon - are incredibly busy ……

Most people have too much to do. In reality, almost everyone places too low a value on the limited amount of time they have available for their critical results within a demanding day. Their Time Management suffers because they are almost too available to everything.
