When the weather interrupts our meeting schedules, I like to make the most of it. Actually, it’s the same strategy I use whenever a meeting gets canceled or delayed.
The question is simple. How can I best make use of this time to forward the most important goals in front of me? Not the task on my to-do list, but the higher order needs, which can often get pushed to the side due to the clutter that fills up my daily schedule. Of course, this requires having a good handle on what those goals are and how to prioritize them.
