Color at Workplace

With my previous blog-article, I shared an insight into my digital tools of daily work.

Today, it's about the hardware that provides these digital tools.
In our everyday life, workstations with their software, their operating systems, are just technical helpers that should work perfectly.

Now a new computer has arrived, an M1 iMac from Apple. The new M1 generation has already raised enough attention technically, I don't have to worry about the performance and the technical features.

More important is the small, underestimated side effect, the color, in my case it is yellow. A sunshine at my workplace. It's just nice to look at this computer.

Merlin Project: Time Saver on New Projects

Workflow "Shortcuts"

You plan your projects with Merlin Project? Then you already know how to start a new project file. On macOS you call File > New. With the iOS app, you tap on Create Project in the locations.

Do you want to brainstorm on the tasks of your new project or have existing lists from files of third-party applications and want to import them? Start with an empty document. A preconfigured template matches your project scope? Select it and let Merlin Project show you the schedule of the required tasks.

I ran 4 marathons, what did I learn?

I ran my 4th marathon some days ago. Because of the Coronavirus, I ran solo, on a route I've chosen, as a virtual race, on the day it suited me. I was prepared and it was hard nevertheless. 42.195 KM (26.2 Miles) are never easy. The route tests your endurance, fitness and commitment. Not only on start, not just by little. It's always a challenge.

So now after having completed the task and the training for this event is done, while the body is in recovery mode, it's time for the mind to do the retrospect and set new goals. What went well? What went wrong? What did I learn? What do I do the next time? Will there be a next time?
