EntreLeadership Post 2

 Happy Thanksgiving!! Hopefully, everyone has had a lovely holiday, whichever way it has been spent. Personally, I spent the holiday with my family at home, and we had turkey (classic), mac and cheese (probably my favorite dish), hot potato casserole, broccoli casserole, and soon-to-be pumpkin pie and apple pie! My mom also made maple pecan fudge, which I know will rock my world as I love a good maple dessert 😋.

Today I wanted to talk with you guys about chapter 3 of Dave Ramsey's book EntreLeadership. This chapter focuses on time management and organization, and for people in the 21st century who juggle sooooo many different things almost on a daily basis, this topic will be extremely helpful. Sometimes I wonder what it must have been like for people in past centuries. I imagine that there has been a consistent need for time management in an organization as people have always needed to provide for themselves. Anyways, on to our topic!

In chapter 3, Ramsey discussed the importance of time management, and how in order to truly enjoy the work that we do, we must have a sense of traction. If we do what we do and feel as if we are merely going nowhere, we will soon become burned out. And rightly so, as human beings, we need and crave a sense of purpose, especially in our work. Dave says, "either you tell your day what to do or you will wonder where it went" (page 44). 

Additionally, Ramsey discusses the importance of to-do lists, and how they keep us on the track we need for the day to be productive. He also emphasizes how our productivity will in turn inspire other people to be productive, and how important intentionality is in the effort to be productive. Lastly, organization is important to be productive. This looks like physical AND mental organization, meaning that both spaces need to know what's next in order to keep moving forward. 

Thanks for tuning in, see y'all soon and enjoy your holiday 😊!
