back in the swing of the things...

happy new year!

i hadn't thought of a resolution until we went around the table in our staff meeting on tuesday morning. so, in a very resolute kind of way, i made up one on the spot.

here goes...

in 2009 i'm going to be more direct and assertive in what i expect of people and situations.

so, no longer will i say: "if you could xyz, it would be great."
now i will say "please do xyz by xyz date. thanx."

i didn't realize how often i tried to sugarcoat my thoughts until big boss pointed it out after a conference call in december. just like that, i'm not doing it NO MO.
