A note to myself

Life is a conversation.

All progress, innovation, value etc starts with a conversation.

If the conversation is low grade then there is little prospect of real progress.

If the conversation is nonexistent (rushing around like a headless chicken, fighting fires, got no time to think and talk) then it’s a lonely, stressful place and progress is the equivalent of revving in neutral. Lots of ‘noise’ and no movement.

Grade the quality of the conversation by the results (are you making real progress) and the journey (Is it stressful? Have you got time for having a ball with your family and friends? Have you got time for yourself?)
