Yesterday I comitted to advise the board of RESPIRE, a nonprofit that offers tools to single parents to live their best lives.
Through the process of making this decision, it boiled down to one question and that was if I am willing to get projects done in a timely manner.
I've made it part of my personal mission to follow through even down to casually exchanging business cards with others. If the famous words "I'll call you...lets do coffee", etc. comes out then its done. I reach out.
Last night after the first board meeting of RESPIRE I came home and knocked out my list. Don't get me wrong, procrastination is my favorite nemesis, and I know for sure the reward of getting things done far outweighs the rush of scrambling at the last minute.
Give doing what you say you'll do a try. It will surprise people and boost your mojo in ways you can not imagine.
