Today marks the end of my one-hundred-twenty-seventh week of working from home (mostly). Here are my takeaways from week one hundred twenty-seven:

• Low meeting bar – Some conversations led to some great, unexpected outcomes. My expectations of these meetings were low, and I wasn’t sure what would happen. This experience reminded me to leave room for serendipity in my meeting schedule.
• Conviction – Having strong feelings about something is important when you’re trying to do the impossible. They help you weather the inevitable emotional roller coaster. Absent that conviction, you’ll likely give up too soon. Being able to communicate your conviction in a way that’s authentic is also important.
• Holiday – I always enjoy holidays because of the opportunity to spend time with family and friends. Looking forward to the long weekend.

Week one hundred twenty-seven was steady. Looking forward to the holiday and next week.
