Well, I was reminded again of the dangers of going down the rabbit hole. If you’re not familiar with this phrase, it means going off on a tangent. He’s a perfect example, because it happened to me today. I was building a test plan for my Renovation application. It took me a while, but I’m realizing I can never escape the day to day if I don’t document everything. But I digress. As I was testing, I came across something in one of my dropdown boxes that I didn’t like. It’s not critical, and certainly not a show stopper. but nevertheless, I found myself googling, experimenting, and suddenly I had lost 2 hours on this minor detail. Something that no one but me might ever see.
Now, luckily, I caught myself before I went ever further down the hole. I finally realized that this isn’t the most important things I could be working on. So I documented the issue, added it to my future to-do list, and moved on.
The point of this post is to remind you that it is very easy to get caught up in small details, just because they are interesting or entertaining. Keep your eye on the prize and always stay focused on the most important things.
