Beware Of Scope Creep

Paranoia can lead you to people-please and overextend yourself. You may find yourself overly involved in initiatives to maintain an illusion of control.

• Audit your schedule! Look for meetings you can eliminate or cancel.
• Consider delegating attendance to a direct report or collaborator who can take notes and report back to you.

Cutting the cord in this way should feel uncomfortable. If it does, then you’re on the right track to improving your tolerance for ambiguity and changing your relationship with fear.
