Back to Basics

I was reading Alan Weiss' http://summitconsulting.com/ Monday Morning Perspective this morning and the quote he offered fit the thoughts I was working on getting ready for my day.  The quote is from Philosopher George Santayana and in the quote he defines a fanatic as "Someone who redoubles his efforts when he's forgotten his aim".  How often are you finding yourself spinning your wheels trying to reach your goals?  If you find yourself doing that often maybe it is time to go Back to Basics.  Redefine your goals using the processes you have gotten away from because you have been too busy spinning your wheels.  By sharpening your aim, applying your processes you will get out of fanatic mode and be more productive.
