“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do”. -- Leonardo da Vinci

This week’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to think about the question “It’s easy for me to….”. What is easy for you to do?

Or perhaps it is a different question. Consider these “It’s easy for me to…”..BE….THINK…Consider…DREAM…SPEAK….GROW

Enjoy your reflection this week – have a great Saturday!

TEAMS365 #2399 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 110

This week’s Weekly Journaling Prompt gets you to think about, and write about, “I want to acknowledge”. What are the things you want to acknowledge?

Who do you want to acknowledge?

Here are two definitions from Oxford Dictionary around acknowledge:
  1. Accept or admit the existence or truth of.
  2. (of a body of opinion) recognize the fact or importance or quality of.

What’s important to acknowledge in your weekly journaling?

Enjoy the reflections!

TEAMS65 #2392 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 109

7/18/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
Welcome back to another weekly journaling prompt. This week’s prompt is “I’m in the FLOW when….”

As I share in PlanDoTrack, my Workbook Planner for Remote and Virtual Professionals, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi writes, ”The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relating times…The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.” (from his book FLOW, 1990, page 3)
 
What are the moments when you find yourself in flow? It’s often characterized by us using our strengths just at the edge of our comfort zone, around topics we find interesting and important.
 
What helps you get into flow?

What’s possible when you move into that state?

Enjoy the reflections!

TEAMS365 #2385 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 108: TRACK

7/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
This week’s Weekly Journaling Prompt is #108 in the series. The prompt is TRACK – What I notice is…
​
As some of you may know, my 2019 planner for Virtual and Remote Professionals is PlanDoTrack. As along time program manger and also entrepreneur, I’ve been fascinated by the importance of tracking metrics and results.

Tracking can be a key part of busines success, especially when things are not always clear. In fact, one of my favorite busines activities are the virtual planning sessions I host, as well as the VIP working sessions. Usually we get clear on the different areas people want to track in their work and/or marketing. Here’s a quick list of things you may want to track with different hats on –

For those that are entrepreneurs:
  • Revenue
  • Sales
  • New contacts
  • Social media numbers
  • Speaking engagements or presentation
  • What else?

As a remote worker you may want to track things like:
  • Time spent on projects
  • Time spent on emails
  • Time spent on administrative tasks (reporting, filing)
  • Time spent in networking
  • Time spent connecting with peers
  • Time spent learning
  • Best time to work on projects
  • Focused elements
  • What are the things that are going to help you as a remote worker?

As a leader you might track:
  • One on ones
  • Time spent in meetings
  • Time spent on administrative tasks
  • Time spent learning
  • What else?

You can pick up a digital copy of the first 52 of them over at the Potentials Realized Store. Take a look at them here at the website and pick up an immediate download.

Best,
Jennifer

TEAMS365 #2378 – Weekly Journaling Prompt 107

7/4/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
This week’s Saturday Journaling Prompt is “the road less traveled”. Consider what is important for you right now. What are the pathways you are taking? How are they traveled? Are they less traveled?

Consider what are the ways your journey is going? What have been some of the highlights of the year? What have you been surprized by? What have you been WOWed by?

Consider the road less traveled.

Best wishes,
​Jennifer
