"When you're slaying dragons, start with the little ones." He tells his kids every morning that he's off to slay some dragons. He likes to start with the little ones, becauseen-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.technet.com/kclemson/archive/2006/09/06/454408.aspx#454533Thu, 07 Sep 2006 07:29:12 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:454533Omar ShahineLove it. I plan to tell our daugther that ;-)http://blogs.technet.com/kclemson/archive/2006/09/06/454408.aspx#455385Mon, 11 Sep 2006 18:46:39 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:455385Allister_FrostHeck! Good advice can be confusingly contradictory. I was always told to deal with the big stuff first (i.e. slay the big dragons). I'm all for quick wins but as a reformed-PM at Microsoft I know I'd never have survived if I'd just stopped those little lizard-like tasks from nipping at my ankles. I'd have been gobbled up alive by a big hairy dragon on day one if I'd adopted that approach!http://blogs.technet.com/kclemson/archive/2006/09/06/454408.aspx#455391Mon, 11 Sep 2006 18:52:21 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:455391kclemsonI don't think those points are mutually exclusive... it's not that you should ignore the high priority tasks, it's more advice to make sure you *don't* ignore the tasks that are a small amount of work, just because they're a small amount of work, because a large number of small dragons will add up to be very painful :-) Plus, it's just cute.http://blogs.technet.com/kclemson/archive/2006/09/06/454408.aspx#3064922Mon, 02 Jun 2008 18:38:36 GMTd5e57398-b9ef-4490-9955-07cbb4e4a80d:3064922kc dragons<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://bryanlatestnews.678host.com/kcdragons.html">http://bryanlatestnews.678host.com/kcdragons.html</a></p>
