using the debt snowball method for work
I've been a Dave Ramsay fan and been using his methods to get out of debt. this week i applied the debt snowball method on something which i found interesting.
i'm a freelancer who usually deals with 2 or 3 projects at a time. i found I'm effective when I'm focusing on a few tasks only.
at the beginning of this week though when i listed the number of projects i needed to work on i found i had about 11 projects i needed to do. so on Monday i made the decision I'm gonna list all my projects with the task i needed to do for each project with the amount of time i needed for each task. and i listed them smallest to largest (best 1 hour spent)
then i went gazelle intense on the smallest task. (one task was responding to a lengthy email to address some questions the client had)
then after a few days now I'm left with only 2 projects i need to work on.
i don't know if anyone has ever tried to apply this before but i think it's a game changer for me.
