Too Busy Tuesday
So, the deal was, I was supposed to do this every day. I do not seem to be doing it every day.
It’s supposed to be the first thing I do in the morning. I do not seem to be doing that, either. For instance, it is 10:30AM as I write this. I slept in this morning, and had to jump right into meetings and work, and snoozed the task for a while.
However, I still think this has value, so I’m going to keep doing it.
Some quick updates: I walked for three days last week, and then I stopped because I got busy, and then I was off work, and, well, just stopped.
Three things from Monday:
I reached out to the QA manager, and offered to assist her with bridging the gap between PM and Dev to get more alignment about how to integrate QA better into our decision making about priorities. We chatted, and she was delighted to have the additional perspective.
I was in a review one of my direct reports was conducting. I kept my mouth shut almost the entire time. :)
I did lots of chores.
Bonus: I took a shower!
On Tuesday, I was kind of a powerhouse. Some highlights:
Many many useful 1:1 meetings; got some goals taken care of, and got clarification from my leadership about expectations.
I got all of the feedback requests sent out for a promotion I’m working on for one of my direct reports. I also found an assessor for the promotion. Huge!
I took a shower! (2 days in a row!)
