121. How to Keep The Spark Alive

Adopting new ways of working can come with a lot of excitement and buzz. It’s thrilling to move from having nothing to having something to having something that really sings.

What practices might you be propping up past their prime? It’s easy to default to complacency—to accept that what’s working is good enough.
