Weekly 2023#45




Second week of my own journey. A normal one with not so much productivity.

I throw a lot time and effort into my work and indeed make a progress. The construction of metrics hub welcomes the join of FBA Inventory, a really huge and complicated theme. I read a lot to get a basic understanding of it and to make the nuance of similar concepts clearer.

Besides, I make a small research of a SaaS startup company. Their product line is good example for my next plan.

However, I don’t think the allocation of time usage is good enough. Too much time is wasted on useless staff.

I lost the Focus again.

When to choose what to do next, I should keep in mind that:

  • go back to the to-do list today. if the list is behind the fact, update it.
  • compare the result and the cost. set a limit to avoid excessive input.
  • if no idea of what to do, just stick to some basic principles:
    • do things related to reading and writing.
    • don’t do fake work: tinker with tool’s configuration like theme, fonts, style, plugin…

      These kinds of work are poisonous to productivity and confidence.
      I have to learn how to ignore them and accept the ambiguity and imperfection.

As to the next week, I must make a progress on my A2 and A3 projects. Although A1 project is important right now, I’m not going to rely solely on it at the very beginning.

Don’t do fake work.

I have to use my time much more wisely.
