In less than a month my full-time consulting engagement will come to an end. This is by my choice and I have my reasons for choosing to do so but I won't talk about that now. What I will talk about is what my passions and dream profession by choice is like. I cannot pinpoint exactly what that dream profession is, but I would try to describe it. This post is about my attempt at describing what I want my full-time vocation would be like.

So this past week I've been trying to improve my workflow as I prepare to limit the amount of time I spend working or being in "work mode". One of the reasons I am trying to do this is to that I can make time for my family that is about to be one member larger pretty soon. The prospect of not having time for my family is not a good prospect for me so I tried out some simple rules I impose on myself when I'm at work. This is a high level summary of the techniques I use that you might find useful too. (Read more by clicking on the title).

There's been a lot going on lately and I've been doing quite a number of 1 AM activities with the current engagement. This isn't turning out to be one of the better things with my current project, but because we have a great team and I love them to bits, it's just one of those things I've been looking to deal with. I really wish these 1 AM Encounters will stop sooner than later.

Apparently this isn't going to happen tomorrow AM. Hopefully it never has to happen again though.
