@ Beth – I feel frustrated if I don’t finish the unit (I think that a big chunk of work can be defined as your MTWU!)

Oh yeah, planes, trains & ferries are the best places to get work done. But I don’t feel the need to limit myself to tasks I can complete while on the trip. For example, if I can get through half of the pile of marking I need to do, or write some of a report I need to get done, I don’t feel frustrated that I didn’t get it finished, I feel happy that I got a big chunk of work done! I’d rather do some of a more important job than all of a job that’s not as important.

Raul, as someone with OPD (Obsessive Productive Disorder) I appreciate this type of planning for getting work done around even the smallest tasks. I will definitely try putting this to use on my next trip. Thanks for sharing.
