Things I Figured Out

As you might guess, I’ve been tremendously busy between launching Stikkit, running my first Craft Workshop (a success!), writing a book, and keeping up with holiday plans. I’m breaking the silence, however, with a short list of THINGS I FIGURED OUT.

  1. I’m 100% more productive when I’ve had my morning coffee. Bad sign?
  2. When working from home, I can use the time spent commuting to catch up on my reading. I’m currently reading On Certainty by Ludwig Wittgenstien and a novel by Salman Rushdie.
  3. While we usually wear a t-shirt and jeans at the office, occasionally wearing a necktie feels good.
  4. One-on-one training and teaching a group are two vastly different activities. A good way to keep things flowing is to pair up students who can help each other.
  5. Stikkit is great for travel plans. Pasting in my JetBlue itinerary and inviting friends and family just works.

    Wish I could have made it to the Craft Workshop… It sounds interesting. Love Stikkit btw.

    Don’t really know if the Coffeee is a bad sign, but I figured out that working in public, at the library, makes me 100% more productive. I have not really put my finger on why, but I become ultra focused.
