Victim or Victor: Your choice as you Chart a course to January 1, 2022, three big buoys and nine check points

This is a series of articles from emails that we were sending out to clients and friends as the CV Crisis evolves. Hope it is helpful for others and also provides a historical context as we all reacted and learned about the seriousness of this virus.




​


June was another month of adapting and learning how to decipher the signal from the wall of noise that was building.

Now that we are past the midpoint of 2020 it seems natural to focus on where we should be by year's end, yet somehow it feels like we need to go further out.

My question for you to ponder is this:
​
Where do you want to be 1/1/2022? 
  • Think through this from a personal, familial, and work point of view.
  • Break the 18 months into 3 sections and then further break it into 45 day periods.
  • This will give you 12 gates to go through between now and 1/1/2022.

In your planning consider thinking through what you can control and what you can not.
Do your best to not waste energy or time on things you can't control, like whether we will have college sports on TV.

You can't control if online school means you have children at home, but you shouldn't be surprised by it, allocate time to having a plan to help your kids thrive.

It is very easy to envision the Covid Crisis costing the world billions and 2 years of disruption.

What is also easy to envision is that the victors will say this period was where they honed their vision and adapted to become their best self and team.

You won't hear much about these people on the news, the media will focus on the victims.
As a leader of yourself and others, the choice is yours, Victim, or Victor.

Let me know if you need any help setting up a 18 month plan, the first checkpoint is August 15th.

Onward,
Drew

p.s. Way back in March we wrote about "Endurance" and as we start our journey to 1/1/2022 it appears Admiral Jim Stockdale's words are more helpful than ever: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/cv-crisis-chronicle-march-29-implementing-principles-drew-sanders/
