Thinking Breakfast
I often talk about my “thinking breakfasts” and in this video, I explain why I do them, the process I’ve honed, the things I do in them and what happens when I don’t.
In particular, I talk about:
🗓️ how I started them as my New Years Resolution in 2021.
⏳ how I have “found” the time for them every day
🤔the discipline I need to have so that I use them for “Deep Work” (a book recommended to me by
Deirdre Lyons) and the “important and not urgent” work on the Eisenhower matrix
✅ the things I think about including sales proposals, presentations, new ideas and conversations (eg a recent one with
Maria Cronin about diversity and inclusion initiatives for young people)
📲 when I do and don’t use my phone
🙇♀️how I use “Rocky.ai” to help me when I don’t have anything or too much to think about
☕️ how I sometimes have them with other people (eg
Carol Glynn FCA this morning at
Brunch & Cake in
hashtag
#Dubai) and sometimes people ask me to think for them
🕳️ the deficit that happens when I don’t do this
📈 how this is an example of an “Atomic Habit” (a book by
James Clear)
📝 why I always write on a napkin
I hope this is of use to you too.
