We need to KISS
We live in a world of abbreviations. My favourite abbreviation is KISS: K eepI tS impleS tupid The reason why it’s my favourite is, that, in the past, I have tried to make tasks complicated. For example, creating a plan with 100s of lines as I was afraid to leave tasks out / unrecorded. TheseContinue reading “We need to KISS”
Trust
Commuting. I haven’t done it for a while (other than a 10 sec walk to my desk). When I did it regularly, 50% of the time I enjoyed it. I was given time to walk and think. The other 50%, well; anyone who has experienced public transport in London will know where I am comingContinue reading “Trust”

When I tell you I’m thinking of trying a new technique, please say, James, don’t! Feel free to experiment butContinue reading “Are you being productive?”
How often do you get distracted?
Have I distracted you now? Do you, like me, try and turn off all the noise so you don’t get distracted? But then you do get distracted, maybe by you thinking about last night’s match, or, in my instance, a loudly meowing cat. And now you’re in a loop. Of course, some distractions are goodContinue reading “How often do you get distracted?”
