Yesterday was a bit of a challenging day, from a work standpoint. The computer problems in the morning through me off for the rest of the day. I was able to salvage some of the day, the afternoon, once the computer issues had been resolved, but it still felt like a mostly squandered day. I am at the point right now in the project I am working where I’m deep into the details of design and configuration. That is just a process of details, finding them, documenting them, communicating them and double-checking them. It leaves room for error, especially since, right now, we are working in solo silos, without the covering effect of peer reviews. It is a time of focus and I really struggled with focus yesterday.
So, today is going to be an exercise in deliberate focus - staying tight, staying crisp, staying clear. There are three major phases in my portion of the project and at this point it is just a question of focusing on the first phase. I would like to get the first phase handed off by close of business today. It is the complex phase, since it involves the most configuration change. Phase two is straight-forward and phase three is more a process of reduction then change. It would be nice if I had process certainty beyond myself, but that is wishing for something that simply doesn’t exist on this project.
