“What gets measured gets managed.” This quote seems particularly important to someone in my circumstance—a glorified military-manager. An officer...
What do I measure? Well I guess I should start with putting together a system for that measurement—first for myself, and secondly for others to use. After all, unless it has to do with something personal—something that only I can do, like exercise—I don’t need to do all the work in my exploits, be they professional or not.
With all the signal equipment I’ll soon be in charge of, I scarcely know how my soldiers go about measuring it. But I’m not really in charge of measuring the equipment. I’m in charge of measuring them—guiding them, and managing them through my NCO’s.
So my own personal goals I’d like to manage better…
1) Writing/Art/Guitar (spirit crap) – creative outlet I do well and want to improve
-Writing – how many pages I can write in a week. Match from there.
-Art – Measuring art? We’ll leave that one out.
-Guitar – Track hours per week. Match from there.
2) Exercise (health poop) – As learned by 4-Hour Body, just by being self-aware, I can better improve my health in the long run.
-“Start Pic”
-Food-tracking
-Measure weight, measurements
-Hobby Sport will be good
3) Financial (money sheisse) – All measured through one bank.
-AUTOMATION
-Cable – cancelled
-Auto – automated
-Savings – automated
-Rent – Pre-written checks
-Loan – Call for automated
-Electric – Shut down all, clear fridge, pay min 8 bucks…
4) Professional – MAKE NOTES! Not going to go crazy into it here.
5) Personal – Most important. Keep a bit of a tab on those you love.
