Overview
If you want to get things done today, you are going to have to hustle! This means that you will have to (temporarily) put aside the lighthearted, entertaining, simple stuff that makes you smile. Right now you have to focus on having the necessary difficult conversations, dealing with a few tight deadlines and making a controversial decision. Conflicts may arise, but they won't be as bad as you fear. Don't wait to get anyone's permission to do something. Ask for forgiveness, later.
