Minor Tips

Projects

Finishing projects requires crossing the dip, and the best way to do that is quit, or don’t even start projects you don’t have the energy to complete. To improve my chances of success, I try to have a limited set of projects in flight, and deliberatelly mothball projects I don’t think are worth completing.

Complete

A few that made it over the finish line

In Flight

Just like kanban, you don’t want too many projects in flight, and this list reminds me to limit my open projects.

On Deck

  • Make a single video from all my ring videos
  • 3D printing

Mothballed

Several Projects that I started and deliberatly mothballed so I’d have capacity for my other projects
