Suzy Welch remembers the "disastrous" Hawaii trip that inspired 10-10-10, her life-transforming method to balance life and work. Welch says to evaluate the "consequences of every decision in ten minutes...and ten years."

-----

In today's accelerated world, with its competing priorities, information overload and confounding options, we can all use a compass, a guiding strategy to help navigate the parade of life decisions: Should I uproot my family for a higher paying job? Should I settle down and have children, or continue my work hard/play hard life?

As a work-life columnist for O, The Oprah Magazine and as a writer, with her husband and former GE CEO Jack Welch, of "The Welch Way" column in BusinessWeek, Suzy Welch has developed a simple and yet incredibly helpful life-management tool she contends will cut through the noise and provides clarity for answering all of our work and life dilemmas.

Join this powerhouse couple for a discussion of how to put their principles to work in reclaiming your lives at home, in love and at work. - Commonwealth Club of California

  • Wow, way to rationalise being a bad mother! It is great the way you put yourself first. I think that there is a message for many of us in this womans story.

    If you are a douche then it does not matter what you promise your kids. It is always possible to reverse engineer your life so that you can justify bad decisions later!
