Day 43

Hello Everyone. It’ Simba here. I’m out of my igloo and I’m reading.

Mice Alive! What is he reading?

“ 4 Disciplines of Execution”.  By my incisor! What is a book like that doing in the house, and worse still, left where it is accessible to the White Delight?

Admittedly, he’s not the fastest when it comes to execution, but I don’t want him to improve. Yukko! Horrible!

This is a very boring book. Actually, I can’t understand it.

……But I do like Leo’s reaction. As they say in the book “It will take him out of his comfort zone.”

Oh my paw! Thank goodness he doesn’t understand it.  

But…. don’t you think the White Delight is looking a bit fiercer these days?  I wonder if it has anything to do with that book?  I need to take a look myself. Not that I would learn anything, I’m already a superb executioner, you know, but I wouldn’t want its contents to harm the White Delight in any way.  Otherwise, he wouldn’t be a Delight.

He’s not having my book!

Ha! I’ve read it. He’s right. It’s boring and obvious. The first discipline of execution is “Focus on the wildly important.” Well. You wouldn’t execute a tame mouse, would you? It might be a pet. (Peculiar, I know, but I gather it happens. Perhaps we could ask for one for Christmas?) Anyway, we only execute wild ones. I would never execute a mouse that came into the house, unasked.  It happened once before and we had great fun watching them trying to catch it without damaging it. They are VERY, VERY slow! And they were bitten! Should have asked us.

What does: “Keep a compelling Scoreboard mean?”   It’s the second discipline.

That’s easy. It means keep a count of the mice you’ve caught in the last month. In my case 3. In his case 0.

We’re in trouble for squabbling and putting fur everywhere. Us?  Can you believe it? We wouldn’t do that! 

Love Leo and Simba
