Thank you! I very much appreciate the time people have taken to reply to
me, and I have had such a wide range of points, ideas and general
wisdom!
I'm half way thru putting together a summary for the list. I did start
one which was rather stodgy. Wont do at all! There have already been
several really useful messages with some key points cced to the list, of
course.
A general point: its clearly something which you need to actively
manage. This is a more complex task that you might expect, but there are
ways of making it more efficient. For someone like me, this will mean
prioritising time and thought into reviewing the whole thing: deciding
what I am trying to do, what I need, and the possible solutions. Then
setting up the chosen tools/processes.Then making sure I keep using them
and don't lapse!
It was also reassured by the messages saying 'that's just like me'.
Clearly, it is OK to ask something rather general and basic- phew!
Thought for the day: did you really need to read this email? At this
time of your day (whenever that is)? Did you really need to read down
this far?!
Its all making my brain hurt! Many thanks again!
