Project Management is fun!

Over the years, I have set goals for projects, resoulations per year and so on. In years past, I usually had a list, vague idea and good intentions.

But, we all know where good intentions lead us too.

So, this year I’m going to take a more direct, hands on approach to my goals for the year. It started as a list, play this many of this, make that and do the thing!!! But, I was looking at it tonight and it wasn’t broken down any further then that. So, I did some play, planning and prepping on programs, widgets and good old post it notes.

I’ve attached three screen shots of the project layout . The first one has, the total number of miniatures painted and total games played. Snuggled between them is Trello but, we will get to that later!

I then have the ‘Center Mass’ of my hobby; building and painting. As I fully completed each one, I can check it off the list!

Next screen shot starts off with gaming goals. For me, this can be the hardest step; getting out! My first goal is to Earn a Vigilius Coin for the Warhammer 40k Campaign. I then have three campaign style games and a demo day.

I next have two individual game trackers; Batman and AOS. Since there not an AoS campaign I know of, I picked individual games to play. I got some Batman figs with a gift card, so I wanna at least get a few games in with them.

Last but not least is my IF/THEN catagory. The first 5 are kickstarter games; two of which are very late. These will get cycles in as they arrive or, if I finish up the other projects first. Then I have some of the GW Boxed Games I want to do followed by some projects I have ideas for but the fire isn’t lit under me yet.

Last but not least is a snippet of my Trello. This is the tracking of miniatures in progress. Each Project will have the type of models or units for anything and everything that needs to be done. Inside that card, building, priming basecoated and final details.

So, here’s to the plan! My first update will be up tomorrow or Monday of what I’ve done so far!

Cheers,

Jordan
