Finding the answers to What, When, & Where

by | Saturday, October 14, 2017

Three important questions that we often seek answers for are:

  1. WHAT is it?
  2. WHEN should we do it?
  3. WHERE should it happen?

  1. That
  2. Then
  3. There

Simple.

Here is a visual representation of the same idea that I created while at a meeting the other day.
