really great to hear about your experiences as well! Very much agree, its a challenge to keep focused on the bucket of ‘important priorities’ and not just get caught up in ‘fire-fighting’ mode. What do you find works for you to keep that focus?
My best tool is to become a connoisseur of what it’s like to be shifting into reactive / fire-fighting mode, and make a craft of switching back to prioritizing.
(responding to this post has the sort of dizzy pulling-away feeling that reactivity has, so I’m going to yolo submit and try to shift back to proactive mode)
