I’m a Project Manager and I’m currently working on a range of projects covering 2 main disciplines – Technical and Research based. I’m a dad of 2 (soon to be 3) and I sometimes feel my head is going to explode with all the tasks, thoughts, actions, deadlines, deliverables, expectations, reports that all need completing. I’ve been one of those people that has tried to remember lots of things in my head – but more recently I’ve resigned to the fact that I just can’t – not reliably nor consistently (sometimes its worked, more than not it hasn’t and I want to up my game at work but more so at home and managing all the things that I want to do with my life).
So this blog is a way for me to record some of the ideas that I’m currently exploring to help me do more with my time. I’m not sure if its just exhaustion but I sometimes go through phases and slapped with that reminder that you only get one shot at this, there is no dress rehearsal and I want to get the best out of the opportunities presented to me (and why not – what else are we doing?) So this may sound pretty grim but its from those darker thoughts that I want to explore methodologies, tools and techniques to do more by capturing all those ideas that we all come up and have some kind of sytem to do something with those thoughts and then get on and do it. I don’t want to look back and wish I had done something simply because I had forgotten about it…
