We all love a good progress report. Numbers, charts, that satisfying feeling of ticking boxes – they tell us we're on the right track. But what if all that measuring is, well, measuring the wrong things? Imagine you're trying to get fit. You lace up your shoes, hit the treadmill, and... focus solely on the distance you run. You might feel great about those climbing numbers, but are you actually getting stronger? Did you stretch? Maybe you weren't even running properly! Just like fitness, focusing on the wrong metrics in life and work can lead us down a path of feeling accomplished without achieving much. Here's how we fall into the "measuring the wrong things" trap: EASY WINS OVER REAL PROGRESS: Sometimes, the easiest things to measure aren't the most important. Imagine a call centre rep whose target is the number of calls handled. They might rush through calls, prioritizing quantity over quality, leaving frustrated customers in their wake.

GAMING THE SYSTEM : Remember the saying, "What gets measured, gets managed"? Well, it also gets gamed. If a teacher's performance is solely judged by test scores, they might focus on drilling facts rather than fostering a love of learning. FOCUSING ON THE SHORT GAME: Metrics are great for tracking progress, but they can get us stuck in the now. Obsessing over daily website traffic can distract from long-term goals like building a strong brand. I hope this help you🥰 If you feel it add value to your life you are free to follow me ☺️

Get hooked on growth. The feeling of satisfaction from making progress is addictive. When things aren't going your way, ask yourself, Is it time to grow?

Fuck sprint planning/analysis. Doing quantitative analysis of work in story points estimates, while expecting ownership of grooming the feature, collaborating with respective stakeholders, but being answerable to only those things that are incomplete
