The year is almost coming to an end with a lot of industries already closing down for the holidays. While that means a lot of people just take time off I was talking to a few people who are actively looking to try new things to help accelerate their business endeavors for the new years which can be as simple as testing out new tech to try and increase productivity. Come to think of it, even for myself I am kind of doing that at the moment where I got some new hardware and have been testing it to get a feel if it helps to improve my workflow.
It is a great time to do so because when it is less busy you have more flexibly in case something messes up or you just discover that you actually need to invest in more stuff to make it work. That was the case for me where I was reading how an item worked for so many people with just the basics but for my use I needed to buy different cables to fit the setup for specific work purposes. I also took the time to try and see I it can work any other way as well. That’s not someone you can casually do if I tried this in the midst of a busy season and is often why many people never try different things to make their life better where the times you can experiment people take a vacation instead which ultimately means the next year will be the exact same.
Easy way to fall behind as new people in the field could start right with all the latest tech and gadgets where you will scramble to play catch up possibly when it is too late. To me it’s fun testing out new stuff too. But either way take advantage of the slower times if you can to innovate for the new years.
