Just a matter of time
Five years ago, a friend asked me what time it was just before he noticed a clock on the wall behind me. I said, “It’s 3pm.” Jeff asked, “Are you sure? The clock behind you says 2:55.” I replied, “I set my watch five minutes fast to ensure I’m on time.” Jeff said, “That’s weird Preston. Why don’t you just set your watch to the correct time and simply show up when you’re supposed to?”
That day, nothing made quite as much sense as his comment.
I going to offer you three invitations:
- Consider “time management” is an oxymoron
- We don’t understand the real challenges we have with time
- Using just three leadership tools will change your relationship with time
