I recently read (well, listened to) Daniel Pink's book When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.

The central theme of the book revolves around the idea that timing matters more than we might realize, and understanding the patterns of our internal clocks can lead to better outcomes and improved well-being.

Here are 3 important takeaways:

1) Circadian Rhythms: We have internal biological clocks called circadian rhythms. These rhythms influence our sleep-wake cycle, body temperature, hormone production, and metabolism. Our bodies are naturally programmed to be more alert and active during the day and to wind down and rest at night. Understanding and aligning our activities with these rhythms can optimize our energy levels and overall well-being.

Get Your People Out of Their Caves

Your people are living in a cave and it's your job to get them out of it.

Oftentimes leaders don't even realize that their people are showing up every day and they’re just doing their thing.

They don't have the time, the bandwidth, the interest to learn new things, like he innovations, the creativity, the change, that's happening in the world around them.

They're totally clueless.

They have no sense, no idea whatsoever.

You, as leader, need to be providing consistent information, ideas, skills, tools and techniques, to help them grow and to go beyond the cave in which they live.
