time management

there are no priorities just priority!!!

it's been more than a month since i post a blog, time really flies fast. it was really a busy month for both work and entrepreneurship however prioritizing was really difficult, one will suffer in the end. this month a big portion of my time was alloted to TSG due to the recent network problem we encountered, it was a total of two weeks of pure headache, i felt that i have shortchaged SDG for several months now. i think i need to make major changes on how i manage my time in the office, i have started planning and even recommending changes in the position of the team members. i am hopeful that i get positive feedback but it's been two weeks and i have not gotten any reply. promoting the team members will give them more authority and i hope they will embrace the responsibility.

what happen to the other two weeks, it was all entrepreneurship. i was able to finalize a deal with the lax project for a maintenance/development fee, it is not the much considering that it involves development but it will give a stable stream of funds for three years equal to one third of the total monthly funds that i am receiving right now from the five it projects i am currently handling. i have wrote about this before in my previous blog and now it's final. the only thing for me to do is identify which one is the priority for each week, when i only have four weeks.

it is now my goal to just work on each project once a week each month, this way i can give my full attention and deliver what is fair to the client. i will defer from working on two projects each week except for emergency purposes. however i still have to make some adjustment this early to provide permanent fix for two or three of the clients before i can set a once a week schedule. everything will start in the hardware, securing the network to minimize visit due to hardware problems and viruses. clients that involves software modification or alteration are done off-site, i just have to work extra overnight for these one. but if i will be able to stabilize the software and meet the requirements of the clients by december this year than next year will just be maintenance activities and less work.

to sum it up, first priority will be the organizing of the manpower in the office, next is finalizing the business plans and establishing the first business then the schedule for the extra-it-projects.

hope everything works well for me, an i will surely need help in accomplishin everything. with all the busy schedule i try my best to appreciate the beauty....
