Fire Yourself
I fired myself over the weekend.
Not literally, but in a sense that I took a moment to detach from my current role and points of progress on projects with the idea of coming in Monday as if I were a new hire. The mindset brings a fresh perspective to projects, a renewed energy to the same position and a forced cleaning of the email inbox.
As personnel, project and/or content managers, it is easy to fall into the trap of rigidity and process. Meetings with the same minds can equate to different projects being attacked with the same approach, but when you bring a new person (or a fresh mind) to the mix, it becomes a catalyst for change.
I’m enjoying my first day in my same job. I hope you fire yourself soon.
