I gave advice without understanding the context too much (I should have done it after I understood the context properly).
- In a nutshell, let me summarize.
When we say that tasks should be separated and made smaller, should we separate them by time or by content?
- Even if separated by content, if a task depends on other tasks, the scope of modification would be extended.
- If you divide by time, you can’t set a goal.
advice
-
In hourly increments, verbalize what you will do in that time before you begin.
- = Also determines goals on an hourly basis.
-
Since the estimation capability is not perfect, there are naturally cases where “it took longer than expected and was not completed in time” or “it was completed earlier than expected”.
-
But repeating the process will gradually improve your estimating ability.
-
Review the plan from time to time.
- = You do not have to reach the goal in time
- We’ll change our plans based on that.
