To those who make sense of mess. Who connect the dots and help us understand what’s going on. To those who just look at a spreadsheet and know what’s going on. Who can succinctly summarize the outcomes of a meeting, the key points of a presentation, the plot of a film. We applaud you. We so need you. You work out what the key pieces are and deliver them to us with clarity, precision and brevity.

To read a book is a joy. To collect books is also a joy! Have you noticed what you think as you start to read a new book? Are you open and curious, ready to explore or are you expecting something else? Do we expect reading to be a frictionless, perfect experience? That we will sit down at the perfect time and read the perfect number of pages. Or we will read and understand it perfectly because it’s perfectly structured, edited and presented?

Working on something and wondering how it will be received? It’s so easy to swing into judgement mode and decide how it’s going to end up. That they won’t buy it. That they won’t like it. That they don’t need it. That they won’t understand it. And we haven’t even tested it out yet! We can spend a lot of energy thinking and rethinking, assessing and judging.

There is sensemaking and there is meaning making. When things happen we have the opportunity to look at them, talk about them and make sense of them. As we do that, we thread our own meaning into those events. Our own lens or perspective. Through sensemaking we may well understand what’s going on. But it’s not until we make meaning of it that it really. you know. means something to us.

There always seems so much to do. So many possibilities, options and combinations. And we get overwhelmed. Until we capture or map those options, they swirl about in our minds, taking up valuable space and attention. Clear thinking gets blocked, doubt is created when we’d prefer decisiveness and we slow to a crawl (or stop) in terms of speed. When you’ve made decisions in the past, you would have weighed up the options. possibly writing things down on a list of + and - or pros and co

As better ways of doing things evolve, we have other ways to read books than actually holding printed paper in our hands, as glorious as it is! We can listen, read a summary abstract, talk about it in a club, on an app, or have someone read it to us. We can skim and scan and not even read the entire thing! Oh, yes we can. Or do we think we have to read each book the ‘proper’ way. word after word, cover to cover?

It may not take very long to complete when it comes to doing it, but there is often one task on our list that becomes a blocker in our productivity flow. It could be the task you don’t want to do, the task that seems fiddly or complex, or the task you are dreading. And disproportionately, we spend so much time thinking about it, worrying, rehearsing and analyzing or imagining it.

We’re getting the hang of online meetings. But how are the interactive workshops going? If we just press the breakout rooms button and think that’s how to interact and collaborate. that’s a limited view. Some facilitators use apps like Mural or Miro for interaction but still, it’s not about just choosing an app or breaking people into groups.
