A successful executive is one that solves bigger problems than he/she creates.

It is a tricky business to know when you should set goals and objectives in order to achieve a focus, and when you would be better off dealing with the acceptance and management of your current reality so you can later step into new directions and responsibilities with greater stability and clarity. Only you will know the answer to that, and only in the moment.

Review your list as often as you need to get them off your mind.

Anything that does not belong where it is, is an "open loop" pulling on your attention.

At at any point in time, knowing what has to get done, and when, creates a terrain for maneuvering.

Trust yourself to do what you really feel like doing, and what you feel like doing will change. Don't, and it will plague you.
