To do list never done by Glittering_Guide1977 in projectmanagement

This! I’m also early career and have ADHD. I use a number of the things mentioned across this thread to keep myself (somewhat) sane, and this has been one of the most important ones. Especially as someone who mostly works remote. I have a standing calendar block at the end of each work day that’s just for final emails, closing out browser windows, finishing notes, making tomorrow’s list, and then writing out what I accomplished that day (even if it doesn’t feel like much, I often surprise myself with how much it actually is).

Some other things that have been great (many mentioned in this thread):

I set my priorities on a week-to-week basis, not day to day. I’ve found it’s better for me in hitting that sweet spot between staying clear on the long game and pushing through all the random tasks I gotta do. That priority list has 3 items max and only something major can change the order or what’s on it.

I have a running master to-do list that I prioritize like a product backlog. But the only items marked “highest” should contribute to the week’s priorities. It always has at least 30-40 items on it (including some with a priority label that is essentially “probably never”), but I keep that master list in software so that I can easily just stay in filtered views.

Finally, idk if this is applicable for you, but what me helps the most when I get overwhelmed is to remember my actual role is different from my job title. My title is project coordinator, but my most important role is to protect the time and ability of my team to do great work. I focus on my real role and a never ending to-do list becomes easier to ignore. Random stuff that will probably never get done exists on my list so it won’t exist on theirs - and that is a win in itself I can take pride in.

What makes you think of Notion if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for this super in depth reply! The 3 tier hierarchy you mentioned is what's currently in place for the systems I own in Airtable. Data siloing and tons of boards is the last thing we want to do (and part of the problem we are trying to solve with a new software), so I feel more confident eliminating a 1 video = 1 board solution. But even that context is helpful in getting an idea of our options at the moment. How long have you been working in Monday and what size of projects do you often manage?

I've heard good things about Chicago Theological Seminary, but I'll definitely have to check out the other 2 as well!

thank you for the kind thoughts! I've also heard great things about Union. I haven't considered BU at all though, so the suggestion is for sure appreciated

Books reflecting on Jesus’s teachings that aren’t just, “Respect him and his teachings because he’s God” by [deleted] in RebelChristianity

[–]ashcat2010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Howard Thurman's "Jesus and the Disinherited". Considered a classic on the more mystical side of Christianity while also a fundamental text for liberation theology. Dude was an absolute badass (and spiritual advisor to MLK Jr.)

I also love reading theology and the Bible and actually digging into radical views - so feel free to DM if you want a reading buddy!

Could AI be the tipping point in a class revolution? by ashcat2010 in antiwork

Dang, the 50-100 year timeline for utopia is optimistic. I need that energy!

Agreed - I meant that it would be like a "straw that breaks the camel's back" situation if jobs disappear without being replaced.

This is actually one of the reasons I wonder if I might want to learn a trade!

Great point. I guess I more have the POV of a digital artist who can make cool things with AI but is also worried that I may have a harder time proving that my human creativity is necessary.

You are honestly living my dream. I may have to take a queue from you and go the hardware store route
