Left to my own devices I am a very make it happen, remove all distractions and "get 'er done" person. However, spend any time getting 'er done and you will notice as I have that the 'er is difficult to define. As a multitasking small business owner who, as one customer describes, "manages talent", it is easy to find myself wheel-spinning with a "just do something" attitude followed by lots of hand-wringing and wondering about the results. Could it be that the often undefinable and elusive 'er is a manifestation of the path of least resistance? What? Is she suggesting an un-American laziness tolerated only by the lack of patriotism found in other countries? Ok, no this is a conversation of choice, thinking before you strike, bob, weave, or wait. It's a conversation about removing the minutia that insists upon clogging our minds with the "pick me", I'm the most important problem syndrome by which many of us find ourselves duped. It is choosing the correct action and then acting.
It's taken me 19 days to revise but here's my resolution for the year: I will wake in the morning and consider and go to bed at night and reflect the path of least resistance that I may arrive at an expected end in 2011.
Today we are serving a handmade / organic Hispanic lunch at Delaney's. Clearly a store of multinationals who just love good food. Bon Appetit. Lol.
