What matters

I’m re-reading Peter Block’s The Answer To How Is Yes. Here’s a sample of some of the kinds of questions he raises about a community’s intention to articulate what matters most.

  • What is more important: aim or speed?

  • When is the question of “why” more important than the question of “how”?
  • What’s more important: what matters or what works?
  • What’s more important: relationship or power and efficiency?

“Choosing to act on ‘what matters’ is the choice to live a passionate existence, which is anything but controlled and predictable.”
