50 (well, 81) tasks I have done at work and outside of work during my life to date

I am currently in a Working Out Loud circle in Week 5 where one of the exercises is to write “50 Facts About Me”. As this is my 5th circle, I decided to do a variant of this exercise using the output of an exercise from Liz Ryan’s Reinvention Roadmap where we were asked to list all the activities we had ever done at work or out of work as far back as we could remember. I did this exercise in one sitting and decided to write down everything I could think of and only stop when I had really run out of things to list. I also decided not to censor myself so this was a personal brainstorm where all the things I thought of were listed.

I surprised myself and got to 81 in a very short space of time!
