It is the very final push for this paper. It must be completed before this morning.
I have planned far too much work to be completed in the time I have, so I will need to find shortcuts where possible in order to have a hope of achieving my goal. It is not enough to complete work within my estimates, I must beat them.
I will be trialling the backlog section in order to focus my time. The idea is that I shouldn’t pull tasks off of the backlog unless I complete the TODO list.

I managed to get the paper deadline pushed out of the door, although I now desperately need to get my sleep and caffeine intake adjusted or I will cause some serious damage to myself.
The increased productivity is something I look towards making more sustainable.
