Two for Tuesday - Holiday Break
|
Hi Reader, It's Christmas Eve and I figure most people won't be reading emails. If you celebrate Christmas, then Merry Christmas! So, no content this week. Just two recommendations. I'll be back next week with something to help you get a great start to 2025. Also, I apologize to those of you who received an incorrect email about an old Positive Intelligence offering. I AM doing one more program at 2024 prices, before my costs go up. The 7-week program begins January 3, 2025 and Pod (cohort) meetings will be on Monday or Tuesdays, depending on when everyone can meet. You can CLICK HERE for more details, but if you want to sign up, don't use the link on the webpage or you'll pay too much. My agreement with Positive Intelligence doesn't permit me to advertise the program on my website for less than $995. Instead, click either of these links too pay $495 or pay three payments of $195. Thanks! RecommendationsThis week I'm sharing two of my favorite Seth Godin posts of 2024. They're short and profound. The other choices | Seth's Blog (seths.blog) Most of the choices we make are "invisible" but still come with a cost. Set reminds us that we can do better. The grid of inquiry | Seth's Blog (seths.blog) If you want to innovate, this quick read is a must. In my mind, there is only one quadrant in the grid to avoid, but I find it helpful to know the nuances of the other three. Great stuff! PodcastEpisode 310 of The Non-Anxious Leader Podcast, 5 Ways You Can Grow as a Non-Anxious Presence – Part 2 of 2, is now available. That's it for this week. Thanks for reading. Peace, Jack P.S.
