Monday reflection: What should I stop doing?

We should stop doing work that adds little economic, environmental, or social value to our businesses or our roles. We should stop doing things simply because “that’s how they’ve always been done,” when better options are within reach. And we should step forward into the challenges of change, rather than shrinking from them. We need to be honest about what is working and what is not, the risks of continuing as we are, and the impact of choosing to stop. Most importantly, we should stop doing the things that drain our energy and resources, limit learning and growth, or prevent people from doing their best work. 

Letting go is never easy, especially when familiarity feels safe. But letting go creates space, space for clarity, stronger focus, better decisions, and meaningful new opportunities. Because progress doesn’t come from holding tighter to what’s familiar, but from embracing the challenges and opportunities of change.
