Get it out of your head and into your life.

The purpose of this episode is to share how January went - focusing on our goals, whether we are on the path, and specifying steps along the way to get there. To do this, we'll execute a "Morning Standup" and let the conversation go where it takes us. Again...

A Morning Standup takes between 20-30 minutes.

5 min: Each person shares the "ONE" thing they must get done today. No matter what!

5 min: What does the rest of the day look like?

5 min: What does the rest of the week/month look like?

5 min: What big decisions do we have coming up?

5 Min: Get it off your chest.

This conversation is with LTC Trivius Caldwell. Trivius is a fellow infantry officer pursuing his PhD at Duke University who will soon take command of the Red Devils in the 82nd Airborne Division. He is very skilled at executing these types of clarity sessions and will share his approach to gaining clarity.
