Too Many Projects, Not Enough Time
When I initially wrote my 2025 Plans post, the plan was to review the progress quarterly. However, March came and I was deep into a challenging assignment; then June came, and it was suddenly August. And then even August passed. In December, I started going through the projects for my 2025 round up post, and…
I haven’t written a single post in 6 months. I was doing so well in 2024, with a more regular schedule, but then I started yet again another master, which kept me super busy up until early June; then we had summer in Ireland, so I couldn’t really sit inside typing; then I’ve been spending…
