WHY PERSONAL AGILITY?
It takes just as much time to flip a quarter as to flip a penny, but the quarter is more valuable.
So where should you invest your time? On the quarters, i.e on the things that bring value to you. Sometimes resting or “chilling” is the right thing to do, and that's OK too.
Personal Agility doesn't try to tell you what's important; it just helps you to recognize what's important to you, so you can do the right thing. Personal Agility enables you ask and find answers to the key questions that enable you to make better use of your time:
What is important?
What is urgent?
Personal Agility is defined through a small number of roles, tools and events. Each of them exist to help you ask and answer these questions, and ensure that your answers are still the right answers as you and your situation evolve over time.
Personal Agility has no hard rules to follow.
Personal Agility consists of a few agreements to make with yourself and maybe one other person, so that you ask yourself important questions at regular intervals.
If you miss a week, it's not the end of the world. If you find that certain aspects don't bring you value, it's OK not to do them.
Personal Agility is like a gravitational force – it exerts gentle, attractive guidance that always pulls you back to doing the right thing.
