There are a bunch of ongoing projects. But I feel fine. According to a textbook for project management, a project has a goal and a deadline. You manage progress of the process, tasks, team and cost. All these for achieving the goal by the deadline without overspending and without killing the team. And only completed "project" counts.
My ongoing projects do come with goals and deadlines. As long as we keep meeting them, the projects will be completed, and I feel good about it.
What I don't like is unfinished, suspended projects. Like unfinished books, when they pile up, they start emitting pressure. Yikes.
Upcoming holiday season is a good time to review all these projects and the status of each.
...well I sound like some kind of workaholic. Maybe I am. Haha.
