Slow Down, You Move Too Fast - The Energy Project
What do these words have in common? “Savor,” “relish,” ” “luxuriate,” “stroll,” “muse,” “dawdle,” “mosey,” “meander,” and “linger?” We rarely use them, because we rarely do them. We don’t have time. We’ve got so much to do, so many balls to juggle, so many miles to...
Three Keys to (Much) Better Decisions - The Energy...
Recently, I came across this startling statistic. Each day, we make an average of 217 food-related decisions. Is it any surprise we so often make poor choices about what we eat? The simple act of making decisions, says the researcher Roy Baumeister, progressively depletes our ability to make them well.

Since I originally posted this in June 2009 it’s been one of my most popular posts. Figured I’d update it and repost it since it’s been over 2 years now. Enjoy. Today is the first day of the month, which means you’ve probably already heard some variation of the phrase “Can you believe it’s already ____________!!!” roughly 42 times. Since we’ve all heard this expression a million...

Over the last few months, people have asked how I am doing since leaving my CEO post at Thomas Nelson. For the most part, great. I am really enjoying this new phase of my life.

It seemed that I was spending all day, every day mired in administrative detail—responding to emails, making travel plans, and filling...
The Power of Incremental Change Over Time |...
I have always been fascinated by the power of incremental change over time. Most people underestimate this. They think they have to take massive action to achieve anything significant. Photo courtesy of ©iStockphoto.com/michellegibson I am not opposed to massive action. I have used it myself to achieve certain results. But it causes most people give up before they ever start. They just don’t...

This is great. Just answer the question, people!
Nearly every single response to every single question I’ve ever asked someone in a meeting, phone call or email can be classified under one of three categories: one’s good, the other’s bad, and the third’s ugly. The good is when someone answers the question first, and then gives additional information afterwards. The bad is when they do it the other way around. The ugly is when they...
