Holidays
😐
I shuffled a little further along in my Christmas labels project. I collected a key supply and made some more decisions on the design and execution. It really shouldn’t be taking this long even with the other things I have going on, and I’m a little impatient to get back to my productivity project. So this week I’ll implement more time management hacks to get myself through the rest of the project.
Productivity
🙂
Work is continuing to nudge forward my productivity system improvements. My experiment in email organization and tagging is taking shape, and I’m starting another one on organizing my meeting notes. My approach right now does feel like a lot of bureaucracy, but time will tell how much of it is helpful and how much is busywork I can drop.
I’m also finding that a new endeavor like this metadata work can really be invigorating if you have the right collaborators. I especially felt this in our dinner meeting last week with a potential vendor, an industry acquaintance of mine from way back. Even going into the meeting I felt myself absorbing the energy of the gathering. And the sense of drive has continued even on ordinary days.
