Purposedifferent

The result is captured as a ROAM Board and an Owner List.With an overloaded day full of too many tasks, a realistic picture of the day emerges. The method connects estimating, deciding, and buffer thinking so planning fits available energy and time.The method protects energy and attention for the task that creates the largest progress and is often postponed.
