Bill Jensen – SIMPLICITY
Tags: agenda | simplicity | bill jensen | simpler | work | irene |

Haha!!! Sorry just kidding!

Here it is for real!

At my work we had a nice lecture from Bill Jensen about simplicity.
(No! not the electronics kind but the work kind)

It was about how you should manage your time at work.
Basically he said:
DO LESS!!!
Filter all the crap you receive trough phone and email and try to perfect the art of work not done.
Work you shouldn't do or doesn't need to be done.

Every hour of meetings, calling and reading mails is only 5 minutes for you!
Of 325 pages of info only 5 you NEED!
Ask yourself what is in it for me!

Prevent information overload.
Every 550 days mails, texts and messages DOUBLES!
So pay attention during meetings!
(don't check phone and mails)
2 to 4 hours are wasted on communication
This also about respect!
Treat your collegues like you would want to be treated!

Nothing is getting simpler without someone saying it!
Find the guts!
There are only 1440 minutes a day!
You don't get any more!!!

Interesting right?
If you want to know more?

Triathlon
Tags:

As you might know, I am writing about training for a 10 kilometer running race in September. Here is my new note:

Moving from Italy to Holland is quite an operation. One of the consequences of this is that I have been, and will be internetfree for another while. While this is actually quite nice, it does prevent me slightly from updating you regularly on how my running is going but this will change soon.
For now I can tell you, the training is going well! And now I am actually not just training for running, I started training for my first triathlon as well. And it won't just be a triathlon, it will be an adventurous one: 500 meters swimming in the North Sea, 20 kilometers of mountainbiking and six kilometers of running through the dunes and on the beach. Just so you know: my cycling experience is limited to getting from A to B,and I am an absolutely terrible swimmer.
So now next to running, I am swimming (for now it would be better to be called 'trying not to drown') and cycling as well. Wish me luck!
