Just when we are on a roll and things are going nice and smooth something happens and we grind to screeching halt. My vacation has worked this way. What I planned to do never happened and I had to work harder at what I eventually ended up doing than had I been at work. Life in our SDP plan can be that way. We worked real hard and came up with a plan that everyone gave the thumbs up to, and we were successfully enrolled into the Program. Things were going great and then stuff begins to happen. We are tempted to ignore this but we take pride in ourselves and our plan. So we call a team meeting and try to figure out how to get free on the barriers holding us back. We share our ideas, and come come up with an action plan to get us unstuck.. The hard part is solutions don’t always work all at once. Sometimes they take time to take effect. In times like these we need both patience and focus.
