Surviving conferences with your goals intact
Conferences are great eating opportunities! For example, I have three breakfasts scheduled today, a lunch, two drinks, and dinner! It is nuts! One strategy I’ve been trying to maintain is my daily appointment with my colleague “Jim” otherwise known as “gym.” It’s in my schedule and when people ask why I’m not going to such and such session it’s easy to say, “Sorry, I have a meeting!” They don’t need to know that it is with an elliptical, a bosu, a pair of hand weights,and a yoga mat!
The other strategy is to eat half lunches and drink lots of tea! I’ll let you know.
I’m leaving today for a conference in Dallas. I have visited the store and stocked up. I’ve got thinngs for breakfast, conference session snacks and drinks. I think this may actually work out! 🙂
Good luck (on al counts)! I can honestly say that it’s been working out better for me than if I had not been prepared. I’ve only had one really off day, which I consider a success in and of its self! Let me know how it goes for you!
