Intentionality [Timeless Leadership Ep. #17]

with David Amerland

Oct 01, 2021

This week on Timeless Leadership, the topic is Intentionality.

We go through our days, flitting from one meeting to the next, firing off emails, and swatting down Slack messages. But as we do so, are we spending much time really thinking about things?

How much deliberation are we giving them? How often do we stop to register whether something fits with our beliefs or values? And what do our actions say about our values?

David Amerland wrote Intentional: How to Live, Love, Work, and Play Meaningfully to address the interconnection between many of the principles of Timeless Leadership.

Hi Scott,

Great JIT messaging. It's almost like you've been reading my mind ... not just this update, but for a while. I'm guessing that we're scanning a similar landscape and seeing cues and events that aren't what we'd expect or hope for, but your timeliness, despite your Timeless branding is always on point. And to be honest, it takes me a little more time to digest what you seem to fast synthesize.

Regardless, Intentionality with/by/from David is what I need, right now. I know that my true north is set, and I think listening to the podcast, and revisiting Timeless Leadership, is exactly what I need at this important point in my career.

Thank you for the perfectly timed, as it always seems, content, and exposing me to ideas that I'd have never considered or had a blind spot for.
