This was Tom Peter’s nightmare…finding himself in a graveyard, seeing his gravestone, and on it the epitaph: “He made budget.” This is a good reminder that legacies are not about achieving the mundane, and certainly not about making annual performance objectives at the office. I like Buford’s comment about midlife being the time you shift from goals of success to those of significance. It’s why I do what I’m doing today.
So what works for me is scheduling exercise on my calendar so it’s a meeting that’s not optional.
