What is “Cessation”?
“There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.” — Peter Drucker, father of modern management theory
Key Points:
- Cessation refers to the conscious choice to stop doing something that’s counterproductive.
- Since we suffer from Absence Blindness, we tend to believe that we have to always do something to improve a system.
- Doing nothing may be the best path in many cases.
Questions for Consideration:
- Are you actually causing some of the problems you’re experiencing by trying to do too much?
- What could you stop doing to make things better?
