EP 46 - Managing Minutes Like Meeples

3 days ago
Over the summer, I had a conversation with a close friend & fellow creative mind. He also happens to be a board gamer & designer, who was providing a kind ear for your host. I was feeling overwhelmed with the amount of stuff on my plate. My time was being stretched too thin, often by forces out of my control.
This friend made a comment about my life resembling a worker placement game, which resonated and stuck with me long after our conversation. This model of thought was interesting and helpful enough that I want to share it with the audience today.

Principle #6 - Don't be afraid to ask for help
Note that the principles in this series are what work for me. They allow me to thrive and live my values as best as I can. I’m not advocating the adoption of my specific set of principles.

6 tips for asking for help:
Be clear on what you need help with
Review all your options: Which will be the most useful? Which are the most realistic?
Respect the probability you’ll succeed with the option(s) chosen
Tailor the request to whom you’re asking: Ensure you understand the commitment you’re asking them to bear and any compensation required.
Set realistic expectations for what being successfully helped looks & feels like
Recognize that the help delivered is unlikely to fully reach your expectations or vision. It may look drastically different than expected, for better or worse.
