We are all here to build our business. Therefore Productivity Matters!
One of the struggles we all faced is Doing More With What We Have.
This tutorial is a way you can do more by using a method that is used extensively in project management called SPRINT or AGILE SCRUM.
For our purpose, just know it as SPRINT.
Let's get some background information out of the way and we will jump straight in.
Definition:
Sprint is one timeboxed iteration of a continuous development cycle. Within a Sprint, planned amount of work has to be completed by the team and made ready for review. The term is mainly used in Scrum Agile methodology but somewhat basic idea of Kanban continuous delivery is also essence of Sprint Scrum.
For our purpose, I have contextualised this for the benefit of the Individual Entrepreneur.
This application is based on the "time boxed iteration of a continuous cycle."
Sprint literal meaning is a short race at full speed.
You cannot run a marathon at full speed. Therefore you cannot work on a 5,000 words article at full speed too. This is the what I have created this SPRINT for.
Therefore the objective of this tutorial is to create a SPRINT to complete the task of writing a 5,000 words article.
To do this, we will perform the following steps.
Step 1: Breakdown the tasks
Step 2: Schedule the tasks
Step 3: Perform the tasks
Step 4: Review the Sprint
Let's get started with Step 1.
Thanks for a great article. When I worked for a software development company, when used Sprints and Agile for our development. It never even occurred to me to use it in my personal and professional life. It was always something to only be used in software development.
Thanks for opening my eyes.
