It has been nearly eight months since my last post. There is no good excuse. But, perhaps, there are good reasons.
One of the most important skills in strategy execution is priority setting. There are never enough time and resources to get everything done one wants. So one has to focus on those efforts that are critical to success, that must be done.
I have been fortunate that RedZone Consulting has been remarkably busy over the last several months. And so, the blog got cut. Not easily and not without significant thought. But it was cut intentionally.
It is not that the blog is unimportant. By no means. If it was not important, then there would be no blog at all. None of us have time to waste on unimportant busywork.
No, it's just that the blog has not been as important as other priorities. Now, with goals accomplished, there is time to return to the blog.
Will it be as frequent as before? Who knows? That all depends on what tomorrow brings. For the moment, updating this blog is the most important task at hand.
For successful Strategy Execution, one cannot allow preference to take hold over priority. Focus on what must be accomplished to reach your goals. That will guide where you spend your valuable and oh-so-limited time.
