Thursday Seeds | Clear the Board
Things that should be done nightly: Clear your desk and clear your computer desktop. Why? It keeps you more secure, no prying eyes on what you are working on until you are ready to discuss, divulge, collaborate, or mandate. It keeps assumptions down for the passers by who think they saw something but saw it wrong. This way you control your narrative: when it is looked upon, what the context is leading in, and how it would be perceived. Personal items in a negotiation situation can later be used as leverage. Think of the episode in Suits where the painting that makes the High character think of his mother and…

Maybe they included you before but don’t want to anymore. It begs the question why. Why would they exclude you? You did something they didn’t like.

There are opinions that it’s not even about you at all. …until it is. What are…

Thursday Seeds| Plants are people too!
Plants can be as good at being friends as any person. They love it when you talk and they don’t talk back. Sure there is science behind that. O2 versus CO2 and who needs what and who expels what. In the 70’s, it was “talk” to your plants to make them grow. But now most folks are aware of the science behind it. I’m betting that this is pretty important stuff when you are in the orbit of our plant on the international space station. And now, most sustainable gardens are known too. Guess why. They don’t stop talking about them! Ha! You must be a plant! Here’s the trick,…
