Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- Every time I try to get organized I try to overhaul everything at once, and a week later the whole thing has collapsed because it was too much to keep up
- I’m efficient now, blowing through my list every day, but I’ve started to feel hollow about it
- My lists have gone stale and I’ve stopped trusting them, so I’m back to carrying everything in my head and dreading Monday
- My systems and routines have grown so elaborate and tangled that just maintaining them drains me, and I can’t even tell anymore which parts actually matter and which I’ve bolted on out of habit
- I lead by directing and correcting and stepping in to fix things, and my team has gone quiet and passive, waiting to be told
