I was having a discussion with a mentor of mine earlier this week. He’s a person I look up to in a lot of ways, most of all is his ability to manage other people, which is something I’ve been struggling to develop. I am not a good manager of others. His criticism was that I haven’t truly learned how to manage myself yet. He went into great details in his observations about me, and it was like looking into a ghastly but accurate mirror. He recommended I read and implement Steven Covey’s 7 habits as a starting point. I’m pretty skeptical of self help type stuff, but given my level of respect for this man decided to just stfu and follow directions. I’ve made it a little over half way through the book in the last 3 days, and I’ve decided to make it into a log,… that is a progress thread of the implementation process of the 7 habits into my life.

It’s a coincidence that it’s also the New Year, and I have never done a NY resolution, but I suppose you could call it a NY resolution if the timing is too coincidental for you.

Will post first update either later tonight or in the AM, and as always, appreciative of any observations/insights/criticisms from the forum dwellers.
