A Useful Visual Way of Listing & Classifying Projects

We constantly live in the midst of projects. Personal bucket list items such as taking that trip to that destination eventually, writing that book we always imagined, building that birdhouse on the tree in the backyard, and then there are those things we plan to do as the family, and those things we plan to do with friends and most typically we have all those projects going on at the workplace.

As I personally like keeping many ideas active, I get curious about many things in life in different stages, my list of projects tend to be quite long. Starting a blog was one for very long time until I could find time to sit down and write during the corona-virus crisis that kept me at home for long durations of time.

An obvious challenge, at least in my case, is keeping a track of those ideas and projects. At what stage they each are, how far they are from being realized and in some cases what is even contained in each one of them as things get forgotten since they became a project.

I observe that this challenge is not necessarily a personal one. It really is quite common for businesses as well.
