Do you have a constraint that's bossing you around?
Maybe it's a budget that's too small. Maybe it's a lack of time. Maybe it's a process that isn't optimized and keeps slowing you down.
Manage that constraint.
Give it attention, but not surrender. Give it focus but not control.
Centered problem solvers manage their constraints rather than letting their constraints do the managing.
A constraint is asking for attention, not giving you a command.
You're still in charge.
Now, what constraint is pushing you around today? How will you deal with it?
