As we approach the end of a calendar year, many of us have the practice of looking back on the year that was, reflecting on the highs and lows of the year - and shape our dreams and aspirations for the coming year.

At Software People Stories, we are running a special series of conversations with people on their own approaches as well as practices and stories of how their thinking has changed over the years.

Today, my guest is Paramu Kurumathur, a colleague and a published serial author.

He talks about

• Two types of books he writes
• How he motivates himself to make progress, even when there is no deadline
• How he plans and prioritizes time across projects
• The significance of a calendar
• His thoughts on year end reflections and analogies from astronomy
• And the repeating cycles in calendars and their relevance
• The usefulness of year end reflections and new year resolutions
