Also, I have to prepare for a presentation by Friday and compile documents by Friday.

This time, I knew that if I took on the project vaguely, I would go bankrupt, so I decided to take on two specific tasks with priorities.

Visualization of low priority even if tasks are to be added

Obviously, when it came to something better than I could do, I asked the right people to do it.

tired feeling

I took a long break and got my head straight.

The recognition of "two unknown tasks that do not exist at completion" is already a bug in itself, and it is not being recognized properly.

Project A: Friday until 8 p.m.

Task A1: Hard, just hard, no right answer, no completion

Task A2: Small, puzzle-like, challenging but I think I can do it, can't wait to try it

Just the juxtaposition of these two is already going to bug me about task management.

Project B: Friday, 12:00 p.m.

Less important than A, but deadlines are ahead.

Task B1: Experiment of unknown duration

Task B2: Create lecture materials based on B1

Task C: Bug fixes, affecting A

Task D: Major update, needs to be done as soon as possible after release of A

I see

Okay, here's what I'll do.

0: Check first to see if C can be easily fixed, D won't until A is done.

1: A1 by dividing the time and estimate the overall time required.

2: Review the plan in light of this.

3: Separate time A2 and do not spend too much time

4: B's are expunged from the brain.

Defeat Plan: No experimentation, no documentation, direct opening of the paper for commentary

The reason why you think you are "busy" for "a task that can be done in a lighthearted manner" is because you are confused because you have failed in task management.

The expression "busy" reflects the implicit assumption that there is a "busy situation" outside of you, but in fact something inside of you is creating that situation.

The story of a man who doesn't help out with the housework, using "I'm busy with work" as an excuse.

If "busy" is like the above, then I don't see how putting pressure on someone who is confused and failing at task management to do household tasks is going to improve things.

That situation itself is a failure of team management.

I feel like sometimes when I'm in a stuck state, doing chores helps me get organized.

Can't afford to manage to clear up the mess.

I don't have the time or the mental capacity.

It's just a "project under fire for mismanagement".

If that's the case, then it's a "failure of even higher management" to ask that fire team to solve the problem within the team.

If it were a software project, a situation where a strong engineer would be brought in to put out the fire.

If you want to combat the declining birthrate, you'd better increase the number of programs that reduce the risk of childcare...

It's hard to ask for a regular babysitter when you have a sick child.

Not really a flameout, but a break from mental health.

The company has a babysitter as part of the company benefits program, so it's a big deal if you don't use it.

As a result, employees are less likely to have trouble at home, increasing productivity.

So, in managerial terms, you're preventing a fire by making sure there's plenty of room to maneuver?

If there is a sudden problem, etc., it can be absorbed if there is enough time.

If you can't afford it, the dominoes fall.

Not enough room to make room.

If someone doesn't have clothes to go to the clothing store, should we give them clothes?

I see.

And then there's the situation where it's a one-of-a-kind ring, handmade by both parties, and it's a bad idea, he said.

Neither of us are the emotive type, so I never thought of making them homemade.

We see no value in handcrafting rings.

Task A1 is done.

worn-out (as opposed to sleepy)

rest

I've been thinking about doing Task A2, but I'm just not feeling up to it.

Maybe it's because my wife is tiaquin on TV.

Maybe it's because of the growth of Task A3.

Uh, let's just take a walk for now.
