Off to a Flying Start

I have spent more time on the first sprint than budgeted for this week. My enthusiasm levels are as high as they get and it is showing with my work. As a result I am getting to add more features to this fortnights sprint than planned.

The web site is going to be a niche notifications service. My sprints are organised in to the following structure.

1. Notification services
2. User accounts and payments
3. Web Design/UI

Originally I had just planned to launch in October with only email notifications. It is now looking possible to launch with SMS notifications as well. I am excited about this from a productivity point of view.

Documenting my goals has certainly helped with the first weeks productivity. Its worth mentioning at this point that no one has visited to the site yet, so its still only me who knows about the deadline. Despite this the artificial deadline is helping to keep me focused.

From my past attempts I know its going to get tougher in the next month or so. When it does I’m looking forward to reading these early posts and seeing what affect is has on my enthusiasm.
