Prioritizing your work

Engineering for the Rest of Us by Sarah Drasner​

Breaking things down into smaller pieces can help fit them into the following order:

  • Things that are actively on fire or time-sensitive
  • Things that can be done quickly
  • Things I need to schedule/block time for
  • Things that I may get to further along Having them in small chunks will help with morale, it will give the feeling of being productive (and small bursts of dopamine!)
