Hours worked, telecommuting, and goals

Why you (or anyone) shouldn't think about how many hours you work.

The more you think about hours, the less you think about results. Success hinges on a single-minded focus on results. Therefore, you shouldn't think about hours at all. (How's that for a syllogism.)

Corollary: telecommuting. Telecommuting is good for any organization. It involves thinking about hours less. That's good.

Corollary: goals. If you stop thinking about hours, you'll find out really fast if you have any goals. If managers suddenly panic because they don't know whether anyone is doing any work, then your organization has no goals. That's a reason to go to telecommuting / no hours immediately – you need goals in a hurry.

Smack Talk, Big Talk

I've scheduled some smack talk to appear on the blog soon. Some of it will be directed against others, as proper smack talk is.


You? If you're our competitor, probably. More coming Soon

First, though, I will engage in some Big Talk.

Our Next Goal: 10,000 Spankers by June.

Daunting and difficult. We currently have 2,000 spankers. So we are looking to multiply by 5 or so, in three months.

Can we do it?

Your momma can sure do it.
