Weekend Workplace Tips with Ryan Larkin

Daily rituals anchor our lives, and it’s vital to keep these rituals going during stressful times. I’ve realized over the last 6 weeks that I do the same 7 things every day, regardless of where I’m working and what’s going on in the world.

I find gratitude. I remind myself that I’m blessed to wake up and that I’m doubly blessed to wake up in America.
I have coffee.
I ask myself what I’m doing in my work life that I shouldn’t be doing. I also ask myself what I’m NOT doing that I should be doing.
I prioritize my day and begin executing.
Very early in the workday, I like to either:
1. Fat finger an email
2. Lose my phone
3. Pocket Face Time call a client that I haven’t spoken to in years
4. Trip over a kid trying to get more coffee
5. Trip over a dog trying to get more coffee
6. Text Weimer [Columbus Workplace Consultant] about my plans for the day (after I find my phone)
I draft hand-written correspondence or call friends.
I have fun.
