Living a Kanban Life

I live a Kanban life.  Every morning, I consult my Kanban whiteboard to plan my tasks for the day, and get better every day at converting what needs to be done into tasks, and working through those tasks methodically.

The major drawback of this excellent tool is that one can lose sight of the big picture.
That's where my second whiteboard comes in.  I can use it for any kind of brainstorming.

As you can see, these two boards work hand in hand.

At the end of a week, I take all the DONE tasks and put them up on the brainstorming board, to take stock of my work, and to give myself a wee pat on the back.












Every week I find an appreciable improvement in my use of the Kanban system.

Returning to my routine

I have been using my Kanban board to get back into my routine after an exciting trip to America.
The key for me is to have in "Doing" only that which I am actively working on. This takes practice.
