Wakey wakey!

Imagine you’re planning your reuse scheme and you’ve already got the go-ahead from stakeholders, done a business case, and have organisational support, but, there’s a delay.

Sometimes it feels like we are trying to swim in treacle. It all seems too difficult and it feels like we don't have the energy to get through the week. 

In this article I talk about one of the methods that keep me going, keep me happy and keeps me appreciative and persistant.

You can download a template to help you keep track of your min wins and we are also giving a way a little book called "The Path of the Doer" below.
