Matt and I met to frame out or TNC post and to talk about meeting with the TNC science team at the end of this month. We also spent some time checking- in on the relationship building we’ve been doing over the past few weeks to support a quiet Yellow year.
I decided against submitting an application to the ASLO MP program. Even though the application outlines the student levels they accept for submission - including graduate students, it felt like the program was more geared to undergraduates and new grad students.
I completed my end of the month stats to see where I spent my time in September and learned a few things about myself. First, in my search for simplicity I oversimplified. Just tagging project, task, and general topic of work only gives me an overview of what I did in general but not for each specific project. Second, the number of category tags just keeps growing. I need to streamline the way I am using them. Finally, correcting for multiple tags per entry and then taking a proportion of the whole is not accurate or helpful when I want to look at the projects and steps within each project to track. I will find a solution in the next few days and update my ‘tagging’ to set October off on the right foot.
