Data points are examples of what the person is doing that demonstrates the bad behavior.

When we have a question, we want to ask it. When we are frustrated, we want to vent. Sharing our news, ideas, questions and frustrations whenever the urge strikes, consumes an incalculable amount of time and human energy, and that matters because many of us say we don’t have enough time to accomplish everything we want to accomplish.

All you need to do is keep your mouth shut or yield to the strongest voice in the room. If I am describing you, I want you to consider how damaging that behavior is for both you and your team. I also hope to give you some simple, practical suggestions for becoming a healthier fighter.

Often our biggest breakthroughs occur when we decide to **stop** doing something. So here’s something we can all put on our Don’t Do List that will change our lives positively forever: STOP discussing the past! It’s history. Its only value is in what you can learn to help you make better decisions in the present.

Typically, they have put too much on their plate and they can't figure out how to get everything done. Here’s what I’ve learned over the years as I transitioned from a poor time manager to a more effective time manager: There's a big difference between time management and **effective time management**.
