I've written about it lately but realignment is/was about consolidation. The networks & stakeholders have told us with their actions the 34 at the top is what matters. 80 is way too many. "80 teams is a floating figure," per SL leader Gordon Gee. https://t.co/fdAQJWLPzD https://t.co/wlOpyIiP91

Two James Clear quotes today:

“You don’t need to worry about progressing slowly. You need to worry about climbing the wrong mountain.” “If you already live a comfortable life, then choosing to make more money but live a worse daily life is a bad trade. And yet, we talk ourselves into it all the time. We take promotions that pay more, but swallow our free time. We already have a successful business, but we break ourselves trying to make it even more successful. Too much focus on wealth, not enough focus on lifestyle.”
