I suck at being independent, so what I do to accomplish my goals is add my good project manager friend to my team and let them boss me around and keep me on track. I am really good at doing things for other people.
This is genius. I wonder if there is a PMAAS (Project Manager As A Service) service out there, or a VPM (Virtual Project Manager) service that provides PMs for those of us who need it.
If not, let's make it happen.
Or a new Alexa skill!
Alexa, send me a guilt trip tomorrow at 5pm.
For real though, this could be a successful service. I'd ask my friend, but there is every chance I may just end up hiring her full time π
self-discipline is so vital for developers, never ever go without planning because you will end up doing a little job for big amount of time.
now what I do is use proper planning and listing my most important tasks before I go to sleep the last day!
I use calendar.google.com/calendar/ in order to manage my time.
I hope you make it!
It's kinda tough, coz it doesn't matter how smart you are you can not know it all.
when working in a team. brainstorming helps...
ββ I spend a lot of time on CafΓ©s talking with people. that's my informal team that I'm using for learning and brainstorming and it works great
what about discipline?
I have found this boss as a service
website that is both hilarious and acutely useful!
the points where I struggle are marketing for freelancers and pricing!
After I lost my job, I am an independent developer. Being an independent developer can be quite challenging, requiring patience and preparation for the possibility of not turning a profit in the short term.
By the way, I would like to promote my own product, a local server environment named ServBay. If you're interested, please take a look. Suggestions would be welcomed.
