How I stay Organised at Work

March 31, 2020 | by thesundaystories

I know I’m not the only person who loves a list. Some people like to write their activities and their groceries down, Mrs Hinch herself has made millions from a book that is essentially full of creative ways to list your household chores, I too, have notebooks stashed in my work locker full of lengthy lists, never to be used again but I have recently reignited a love affair I had all but forgotten about and it’s imperative I share this slice of organised heaven.

Trello.

Trello is a free platform that allows you to collaborate with a team or create your own project space by building well-organised lists.

The above picture is a screenshot from my personal Trello board, I’ve also got a work board that I find I tend to use more often and more intricately but due to the nature of my job and the GDPR implications, I thought it safer to use my personal board as an example.

Not only does Trello allow you collate multiple lists under whatever subjects you require but if you click into each list item you have the option to colour code with labels, write a description, add a checklist, update the activity, provide a ‘due date’, add attachments and share with a work group (see below).

I freely admit I don’t use Trello to it’s full capacity. I rely heavily on the application for work, with priority to do lists, long term to do lists and more detailed lists specific to my job but I’m keen to start utilising the app to it’s full capabilities when it comes to staying organised with my blog. There’s also an app to download on your phone which makes it easier to jot notes and ideas down when you’re on the go.

I love the fact that you’re able to go into greater detail and ensure you’re even more organised with these boards. You could, potentially, draft your blog posts in Trello, attach images you want to use and start organising your blogging calendar with the due date function.

I find Trello a great way to ‘brain dump’ my thoughts and things I need to do which tends to increase my capacity for creativity!

Two books. Two poorly written reviews. CMBYN is a Two books. Two poorly written reviews.

CMBYN is a beautifully written account of 17 year old Elio falling in love with 24 year old Oliver during a summer in Italy at his (Elio’s) parents villa. I loved everything about this book; the intensity, the vulnerability, the intimacy, even the moments of discomfort. It was the escape I desperately needed from a devastating start to 2021. 

On Earth is a letter from a son to a mother, it moves from stories of his childhood to knowledge of his mother’s past in Vietnam, creating an explanation for the nuances and intricate details of their family’s life. Full disclosure; I probably didn’t appreciate the story as much as I could have, or should have. Perhaps I’d had too much purple prose by this point but it is a beautifully written and terribly sad story. A quote that has stuck with me;

‘The truth is we don’t have to die if we don’t feel like it.

Just kidding.’
What can be said in New Year rhymes, That's not be What can be said in New Year rhymes,
That's not been said a thousand times?

The new years come, the old years go,
We know we dream, we dream we know.

We rise up laughing with the light,
We lie down weeping with the night.

We hug the world until it stings,
We curse it then and sigh for wings.

We live, we love, we woo, we wed,
We wreathe our brides, we sheet our dead.

We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,
And that's the burden of the year.

Sorry for the spam today, I haven’t touched this Sorry for the spam today, I haven’t touched this account in a week or so and I had the sudden urge to update it today 🙃.
I rushed to finish An American Marriage today as my last book of the year, tomorrow I plan to write up my end of year round-up of books for my blog (which has been severely neglected for months). I’m really happy with the vast majority of books I’ve read this year and my aim next year is again, not to worry about quantity, but aim for quality.
Behind AAM are the beginning of my TBR pile for 2021, any there that you’ve read?
