Reply To: Exercise 6: 10 People Closer to Your Field
Exercise 6; 10 people in the field SO FAR
As it stands tonight I have 3 of the 10 people confirmed for calls over the next two weeks. I plan to book 10 but it is going to take a while. For me, that is fine because this is the reality of the sustainability and corporate world I work in. The important part is that I get familiar and comfortable with the process so I can repeat it on my own. Keeping up to the deadlines is secondary but still necessary to get through all the elements in a defined time. These time pressures are in fact a simulation of what a challenging project is really like. Part of the course experience is to build the resolve it takes to see it through when there is no one like Josh to set a deadline.
These are the real learnings at this point. The more useful advice I get, the more refined and successful my problem-solution will be. There has to be a cut-off point and 10 is a reasonable number so I will continue past the deadline and at the same time work to keep up with the next exercise. I say this because I saw Beth’s note last week about her struggling to keep up. It is going to happen to all of us. I know you can get through it.
