Before you begin, set up a check-in or two
When you bring absolute focus to a project, it’s easy to let it consume you.
Next time though, don’t. Before your next project, give yourself a “check-in,” or a moment for you to look at what you’ve done. Ask yourself some questions like:
- What is the goal of the project?
- How is this making me better at _____?
- How can I test myself before the next “check-in?”
This exercise is designed to help you figure out both alignment and your improvement.
Don’t end up the same person you were a year ago.
