Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• I say "I’ll send that over" or "I’ll get to it" and then a bunch of those little things quietly slip my mind
• I won’t hand anyone real responsibility until they’ve completely proven themselves first
• With new people I try to fast-forward to being close
• When the practice step is just a private promise to myself, I let it quietly slide every time with nobody the wiser
• In the moment I love making the big enthusiastic promise
