Weekly Awesome Report #5

A review and celebration of my achievements and picks of the week for the week leading up to February 1st, 2019.

Overview

The hardest thing about having an elaborate productivity system is what happens when you want to make changes. Maybe I just didn't design my system well, but it feels like the slightest change has a huge cascading side effect that I have a hard time managing. That said, I am pleased to report that I have begun to shake out some key issues within my system that have been holding me back.

While my coding output has been lower than desired, I have gone through two to three iterations on my productivity system that have results in some key lessons as I try to take my system to the next level. For example, I tried measuring my tasks in pomodoros, but that quickly proved more time consuming than I wanted with little result for my final results.

To be honest, I have actually missed writing the way I did before and will come back to that soon. There's been a lot of backlogged ideas in my head and I really need to clear room for some new ones. 😅

That said, hope everyone had a good January. It's another month and time to tackle some new challenges. Cheers! 🥂
