Scrum for One: How to Apply the Scrum Framework to Personal Projects

The author's home renovation project is ongoing, with a long list of tasks to complete. To manage this project more effectively, they are applying the Scrum framework, which provides a process for planning and executing work as a team. The framework consists of sprints, backlogs, sprint planning, and retrospectives. In each sprint, the author plans their work, prioritizes tasks based on importance and complexity, and estimates the time required to complete them. After completing the tasks in the sprint, they conduct a retrospective to review what went well, what didn't, and how to improve for future sprints. By using this framework, the author aims to work at a sustainable pace, plan their work over time, and reflect on their progress to make continuous improvements.
