How do you decide which task to start with first?

Answer from AI

When choosing a task to start working on, I consider several factors:

  • Business or client priorities: tasks that bring the most value or are critical to the project are performed first.
  • Urgency and deadlines: if there are tasks with strict deadlines, they should be started earlier.
  • Dependencies between tasks: if one task blocks others, it is better to do it first.
  • Assessment of complexity and time to complete: sometimes it makes sense to start with simpler tasks to quickly demonstrate progress.

For example, if there is a bug that hinders user work, I will start with fixing it, even if there are parallel tasks related to new features.
