Priority
In this episode we’re talking about priority. You’ve all heard it, "when everything is a priority, nothing is". Not sure who said it, but it's natural truism. When we talk about priority, we're usually talking about which project, epic, or story is most important given current circumstances.You need to be able to figure out what's most important if you have multiple competing projects, needs, tasks, or ways to apply your resources. Given the right context, could you figure out the priority of a list of projects? Would having input in the decision and delivery process improve your ability to deliver? Would it improve your commitment to the project?

What are you doing now?
How are you spending your time? This episode is a review of how we’re spending our time and we hope it will make you think about your own situation. What are you doing now that you can’t go to the bar as easily, or events are shut down. Are you investing in yourself? As you'll notice, we talk about writing a lot in this episode. It's good advice overall. Putting pen to paper, or fingers to keys, and getting thoughts down in some manner will help you organize your thoughts. Be willing to put yourself out there. You have a unique point of view and an authentic story to tell. Can you find the courage to write it down, record it, or share it?
