Long-Term Thinking and Tunnel Vision
By the end of this lesson, you can weigh long-term results and catch yourself when you have tunnel vision.
The big idea
Today's choice is tomorrow's situation, so look down the road.
3. Long-term consequences. Looking at the larger picture means weighing both short-term and long-term results. The book's example: don't only chase the promotion right now. Ask how it affects your future growth, your work-life balance and your long-term goals.
4. Tunnel vision. When you're too focused on today's task, you can miss what's changing around you. The book's classic example: someone so busy with day-to-day work that they don't notice customers wanting something new, or new rules coming, until it's too late.
A simple check: once a week, lift your head and ask, "What's changing around me that I haven't noticed?"
