Ok Rosa, I'll give it a shot...
1. I prefer a brand new legal pad to write down my ideas.
2. I prefer to store as much information as I can on my Treo 650.
3. I prefer to to try new software rather than keep using the same software.
4. I prefer a large work area where I can spread all of my stuff out (my desk is a 3'X 8' table).
5. I prefer to answer emails as they come rather than wait and answer them all at once.
6. I prefer to keep my office door open rather than make appointments.
7. I prefer reading over writing, but I'd like to do more writing than I do reading.
8. I prefer short notes over long letters.
9. I prefer a challenge rather than a routine.
10. I prefer a clean sheet of paper rather than trying to rehash something that I created before.
11. I don't have time or energy for people who whine with excuses.
12. I prefer working with a team rather than working by myself.
I think I'll need someone else to analyze this for me :)

Hi Rosa, nice to meet you, I'm flattered to see my post mentioned in your blog:)
This list is my answer to a short TM questionare. I was surprised how this simple activity reveals myself. I have realized how much most productive time in the morning was wasted reading emails and company bulletin in the morning. Also I have to admit I am really not good at multitasking, context switches cost me a lot of time and increase errors significantly.
Making a list is easy. The difficult part is to keep reminding myself about these features/limitations I possess.

Great list Tim! I am so with you on preferring a nice big work space, and isn't it funny how many of us who write prefer short notes?
Welcome to Talking Story Da Bei, we are very happy to have you join in the conversation here in our Ho'ohana Community! I love the exercise, and it's one I'm going to adopt in my MWA3P coaching. "Context" is a word that just keeps coming up over and over again ...
