Review

Take Action
BEST LESSONS LIST
First step: Review
Take 2 minutes to write down some of the best lessons you learned today. There was a lot of good solid information provided, but what were some ideas, suggestions and concepts that really hit home with you?
Now take 3 minutes to share these ideas with a partner. When 3 minutes are up, I will let you know and then I want you to share with your table.
Select a rep from your table to share some of the common themes.
Anyone else have ideas they would like to share?
Next > Prioritize
Let’s face it…no matter how hard we try and can’t do EVERYTHING. Let alone if you are truly wanting to make a change, trying to change everything at once just causes stress, confusion and eventually most of us fall back into old habits.
Take the next 2 minutes to review your list – your list may have been revised based upon some of the thoughts/ideas shared by the group. Using the Category method, assign each idea to a specific category.
