I was brought to your page by accident, very glad that it happened !!! I’m mother of 2 little ones and my life has being kick out of balance, I find it hard to concentrate, set goals, finish will do lists and most importantly, hold my attention. The fact that someone took the time to research, summarize, digest it and deliver it all in one place is hugeee… Thank you so much, I look forward to put them in practice!

Hi J.D.,

Honored to have you here — love your blog!

Agile concepts — such as constant reviews, sustainable pace and so many others — are a vast source of inspiration for ways to increase our productivity, aren’t they?

Actually, right now I am adapting and test driving many eXtreme Programming concepts in my own life — and getting excellent results! Depending on how that turns out, I’ll refine the manifesto

Hi Yose,

Thanks for the compliments! The way I came up with these principles was from the bottom-up: I started using the tools, and after realizing how well they worked, worked up figuring out why, and only then came up with the general principles. (I am a big fan of bottom-up approaches!)

With 2 young kids, I take one hour at the time, as some days are better and most are not with infant waking, sickness and tantrum all around. Good tips for others who may have somewhat normal routine, something to look forward to.

Very nice distillation.

The interesting thing about keep moving on is it keeps you from ruminating which can be a downward spiral. I’m a fan of the sustainable pace.

Hi Luciano,

Awesome and brilliant! This article summarizes all the tools that explained in earlier articles. Anybody should start from this principles, and use the tools in a more structured way. Can’t wait to implement this principles in my own life. Thanks.

Luciano,

I’m in the process of launching my second blog and it will be my very first multi-author blog that I’m doing in partnership with some others so this kind of information will really come in handy. I plan on reading through this post a few more times. Now that I have a full time job, I’m forced to be a thousand times more efficient with all work I’m doing on my blog.
