This is so true! For many years, I was trying to meassure every aspect of my personal life and setting ridiculuos deadlines for things I coud not control.
Last year, I realized I accomplished more things at home with a simple reminder for the day, without time tracking every activity. But that’s just how it worked for my personal activities, I bet every person is different.
Great point about the importance of remembering the in-progress work. It really does break trust in the team when key facts are forgotten. My one hack to prevent missing key information is to write notes and take screenshots. This helps my memory. Thank you for fresh ideas to focus !
