The Strategy Document Playlist

 At work, I am writing a Strategy Document. 

Kill me now. 

In my job, most of the time, I am a worker bee. I'm a doer. The information comes in. I write it up in an acceptable format. I'll take some pretty pictures. I'll sign the document off. Rinse and repeat. 

Currently, I'm writing a strategy document for a nearly redundant website upgrade. 

It's not something I normally do, but as a they are paying me I need to suck it all up. 

I don't like thinking about all of this stuff - I mean, telling people what they should be doing and how they're supposed to be doing it. Sure, I think about this before I make the changes to whatever website/document/training material but write about it... really....like what are all the considerations you need to think about before doing all this. Things like reading age, templates, fonts. image quality...

I needed a playlist to get me through this. 

Here are some of the songs that came up. It might be a bit strange what goes through my ears as I write this tome of despair.

Kneecap's H.O.O.D. (See song of the day)

Kneecap is the best for writing stuff like this. 

Metallica - in particular, Master of Puppets. 

The Streets - Fit But You Know It

Rage Against the Machine - Killing in the Name

Public Image Limited - Rise


Nine Inch Nails - Closer

The Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up. 

Billie Eilish - Bad Guy. 

Talking Heads - Psycho Killer

Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter


I think this list of tunes will see me right - and will deliver a quality document. 

What do you reckon?

The cat is telling me to go to bed.
