On This Week’s Feedback Friday, We Discuss:

🎧 How Essentialism author Greg McKeown uses the 80/20 rule (aka Pareto principle) to get more done in less time — and why Jordan is pretty minimal with his posting on social media.
🎧 You’ve been trying to set boundaries with your bipolar mother about not interrupting during work hours unless it’s important, but she calls you three to five times before noon every day just to talk. How can you help her to understand that her perspective isn’t authoritative?
🎧 You’ve had to fire and sue a general contractor who bilked you on a house renovation, and now you’re forced to live in expensive, short term rentals while you find someone reliable to finish the job. How do you keep your sanity and identity intact while languishing in limbo?
🎧 A friend with whom you reconnected has been diagnosed with depression, but would rather keep rehashing the same conversations with you rather than seek professional therapy. How can you bow out of your unintentional counseling role so she can get the help she really needs?
🎧 You were recently selected by your company for “reverse mentoring” — a program that connects senior-level managers with younger and less experienced employees in order to exchange fresh perspectives. Your mentee will be the CEO of the company. How do you make this unique opportunity valuable for both of you?
🎧 You’ve been strengthening your network thanks to following our free Six-Minute Networking exercises, and now you’ve been getting clients for your new photography business. After doing one freebie for exposure, how do you start charging what you’re worth?
🎧 Have any questions, comments, or stories you’d like to share with us? Drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com!
