Daily Reminders
Good morning!
Three months ago I completed what was considered a very large financial system transition for my company. The biggest challenge involved with that is the aspect of managing change. As a part of that change the system will send daily notices to various people who need to take action in the system on a particular item if their name is attached to it. As part of that change, some people were getting these notices and they shouldn't have and some people were getting them and just didn't know what to do.
The significance of the daily emails is to inform people that they have a responsibility and that they will continue to get them until they do. While it is annoying, it forces users to do the right thing. I'm sure you're thinking? What's the point?
Well a few months ago I purchased a book called "Daily Proverbs for Men" from a Christian book store and it has 365 pages for each day a daily comment about having a relationship with God. Each page ends with a verse from the book of Proverbs. As I sat at my computer this morning I just realized how helpful that has been (when I remember to read it) in helping me keep my life in perspective. Daily. I wish I could have gotten them electronically but it serves as a wonderful way to start my day. It is my daily reminder to do the right thing and make sure I don't try to do more than I can handle and let "him" handle the rest.
Do you have anything that gives you daily reminders? Anything that helps you remember how to do the right thing everyday? I would encourage you to do so sign up for an email reminder, anything that can help you take 2 minutes and think about it. A couple that I recommend:
