Algorithms of work
Tasks
What is a TASK? It is an activity to achieve some result. Any effort to get stuff done.
For example, cleaning apartment or drafting a contract would be a Task.
Task consists of small actions, performing which you achieve a result. We call them Algorithm. When you are cleaning your apartment, then watering plants, dusting, arranging dishes – they will all be steps of an algorithm.
Our experience shows: when you divide a Task (especially a recurring one) into steps (Algorithm), it considerably simplifies the work and raises productivity.
Projects
When a Task is big and involves different Tasks, it becomes a PROJECT. Each Project consists of a bunch of Tasks organised in some way to achieve an even bigger result.
For example, renovating your apartment or creating a website would be a Project already. It consists of different Tasks with different results, which happen at different times and have different execution routines.
Meetings and Events
If a Task needs to happen at some exact time or during some period and involves interactions with other people – then it’s a Meeting or an EVENT.
MEETING is a short-term task, when you meet other people to coordinate and discuss important questions. Event is an occurrence involving some considerable efforts to organize or to participate in.
From the sport perspective, your regular training would be a meeting with a coach. And a tournament would be an event in your life.
Summary
And basically that’s it. TASKS, MEETINGS, PROJECTS and EVENTS. These are all the elements you are dealing with while organizing your work.
Every Task easier to complete if it is organized in steps as an algorithm. And if the point of the task is to meet other people, then it is a Meeting.
Events just happen around and ByCycle helps you to keep them all in one place and help with preparations.
Project is such a big task, that it involves other tasks to be completed.
ByCycle
In ByCycle, all your efforts are organised in a very simple, ergonomic way.
It does help to keep the chaos under control, communicate with the team and have your work done.
Give ByCycle a try, and see how it works for you.
