HOW TO STAY AWAKE IN MEETINGS:
OFFERED AS A PUBLIC SERVICE... Do you keep falling asleep in meetings and seminars? What about those long and boring conference calls? Here's a way to change all of that.
1. Before (or during) your next meeting, seminar, or conference call, prepare yourself by drawing a square. I find that 5" x 5" is a good size. Divide the card into columns--five across and five down. That will give you 25 one-inch blocks.
2. Write one of the following words/phrases in each block:
* synergy | * empower (or empowerment) |
3. Check off the appropriate block when you hear one of
those words/phrases.
4. When you get five blocks horizontally, vertically, or
diagonally, stand up and shout "BULLSHIT!"
