NOTE: This post was created after the date of the week… Busy summer, sorry!
What a whirlwind this week was. I had all my follow up meetings with clients and made some good progress on things. After the success of Monday’s conversation (confirmed client), I had a hard time concentrating on next steps with other projects, so found myself a bit all over the place, but recovered nicely by the week’s end.
Words of the week:
- Time Management: I’m not bad at it, but need to get better at it, I have lots’s going on and need to make progress for clients. I have an upcoming family visit, that I’ll need to be able to juggle carefully with other commitments.
- Field Visits: I am spending quite a bit of time on the road for field visits. It’s a good thing, which helps me validate the selection of sites for my main client. I will likely have to continue to do that in the next couple of weeks. It’s a bit of a throw back to old work, but still a very important part of what I will be doing for them.
- At all cost: This is one of my favorite parts of the entrepreneurial mindset. You really have to push yourself as hard as possible to get things done, but have to balance getting stuff done with burnout and personal values. It’s amazing how much it tests you.
Number of the Week:
- 1 Million: The number of data point we need to capture for our startup.
