Show Notes

Habit 3 of the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is Putting First Things First.

This means moving out of always being in crisis mode and considering planning, prevention, relationship building and recreation. This is the zone of effectiveness, and to move there more often will take courage, real conversations and a personal challenge where you ask what zone you prefer working in.

I ask, why does every layer of healthcare hierarchy need to be involved in the day-to-day crisis management, and if we’re all doing that, who is being effective and thinking about prevention and building the relationships and plans we need to move us out of the always-on crisis mode?

In this episode, I share a story of how I leaned into something important that was not urgent, but made all the difference for my soul and mind. This story creates a bridge to The Healthy Mind Platter, a tool that reminds us of what we need to stay mentally well and that there is synergy when we integrate the tools at our disposal.
