Lets see how much we can generate and how much good we can do. A friend asked me how to maintain habits. EG - I do a form of HIT (High Intensity Training). The humanitarian crisis remains extreme. He was slipping. My answer: I find when my habits are too hard, I will slip on them. Short duration time wise but really hard.

I was in the city today though so had train time to jot down some ideas. Leading with Conviction explains the pillars and the steps on how to achieve them. I am woefully behind in posting my book reviews. I read Leading with Conviction - Mastering the Nine Pillars of Integrated Leadership by Shalom Saadar Saar. I like leadership books.

I read a book by Anne Bruce, Brenda Hampel and Erika Lamont called " Solving Employee Performance Problems - How to Spot Problems Early, Take Appropriate Action and Bring Out the Best In Everyone ". One thing I like to do (although clearly am not perfect at) is coach, train and mentor. People by nature are complex.

The Leadership Pipeline - How to Build the Leadership Powered Company by Ram Charan , Steve Drotter and Jim Noel was awesome. I'm currently preparing myself for transition from managing managers to hiring/training and managing functional/general managers. It is a must read for any aspiring leader at any level.

Instead of brainstorming, creatives should be trained in stealthstorming - getting ideas sold is a more critical skill than coming up with the idea in the first place.

I was approached by an entrepreneur who wanted to know how to make things go viral. I have occasionally experimented in how to make things go viral.

At the LIRR train station. The book is chock full of ideas on how to get and stay motivated (reading a book like this would be a good start in my opinion). I am loving my new office space. Gorgeous health club in the building. And open concept. More on that later. I find it easy to exercise (although sometimes put it off).
