01.15.2021: Week in Review

Here’s are the updates for the week in review. Peep the audio version of the update on this podcast episode.

What’s was in your way this week?

  • Not guarding my time

How will you overcome it?

  • Time blocking

  • Rejigerring my calendly so that I'm only able to be there during certain times

  • Pomodoro and sticking to it

  • removing email/slack notifications so I'm not brought out of focus during the day

What are you working on this week?

  • Ideation for odnc project (leaning toward an automating operations project)

  • enabling subscription features for an existing client, scoping out work for two new clients, wrapping up two other apps

  • kicking off ODNC + EY’s entrepreneur access progam and meeting other other entrepreneurs

What went well?

  • won a buildie

  • exploring some new workshop + panel opportunities

  • greenlight for a few new consulting projects

What went poorly?

  • did unfocused work which resulted in staying up until 4:00 am two days in a row 😒

What did you learn?

  • Waking up early makes me feel great, need to get back to that

  • timeboxing (or just time blocking) my activities is a necessary investment. I’ve got a few recurring activities so I’m trying to get my schedule into more of a habit (morning for lunch pail, afternoons for client work/meetings, checking email/slack at dedicated points during the day)

That’s really it for now. Onward and upward 🚀
