It was so lovely last week - Spring had really sprung and the new shoots were beginning to show. Well, they were in the garden anyway.
I set about tackling the lawn for its first cut of the year by starting at the edges with every intention of working methodically through. I then found myself making swirling patterns all around me in the grass with the mower and realised that my approach reflects the way I get the most satisfaction from work.
I start with the best of intentions to work methodically through a job and then I start getting creative. With the type of work I do in business analysis, project management and L&D management that can get a bit difficult to manage and so I bring myself back to my methodical approach when I have enough creativity to satisfy me.
And so it was with the lawn... as soon as I had covered the lawn in a creative way, I went back over it for a quick check in a methodical way - up and down the lawn to make sure I had not missed anything. Good job I apply the same checks to my work otherwise it could get a bit messy. It would look good though :-)
By the way, when does grass become a lawn and when does it revert back to grass?
