Thoughts on Project Management

This post is part five of the series, completing my about page with more than just short paragraphs.

Over the course of creating and organizing my different projects I would say I gained some knowledge about project management. I’m not going to say that I’m a pro or just good at it cause I definitely have to learn much more in that field but I would say I made some experiences of value. My question is, how can I get better in project management. I think the way I started out was quiet right. Just doing it. Starting a project, planing every detail, brainstorming different ideas, creating something new, failing and in the end having something made out of your own brain and knowledge which you can call a result of value.

I have to admit that in my early days of me trying to get some project done, I wasn’t focused enough and most of the time failed at the later parts of my given line of starting, planing, brainstorming and creating. I did some projects but nearly every time had a problem at the ‘crating’ part. The problem was most of the time that I started a project and in the end it all took to much time and I got a new idea for a new project and the one already started got trashed. That’s getting better, reading about GTD and structured working, I now get my things done and projects finished — which is even more important for client projects.

I’m looking forward to my upcoming projects and hope that something of value will turn out of all these headaches.

I call the last years of headaches my learning and failing time. But someday that has to stop and I’m working hard to get something done, a project, I can call a success is one of my main goals for the feature!

Next is ‘Why I switched or My Macintosh Workstation’. Stay tuned for part six of the series. If you want let me know your feedback or maybe tell your story.
