Thanks Alvin, i enjoyed that video it was insightful, and I appreciate the book recommendations, and product links too! I'm currently preparing to take the CAPM exam, and thanks to your well-structured study package, I'm starting to feel confident about taking the exam very soon! Thanks again!

@J N, thank you for sharing with me you latest progress with your CAPM Exam! I'm also really excited to hear that you found the video helpful! Good luck with preparing for the CAPM Exam, I know personally (after having gone through it myself) that it is not easy, but it's well worth the time, energy, and effort, and it's going to open up so many career opportunities for you. Keep up the great work!

Great video. If I was younger that would be an awesome routine. Wife and Kids will ruin this routine really fast lol.

[@alvinthepmofficial]

Haha, thanks Johnathan, glad you liked the video! My wife and I don't have kids yet, but we hope to start a family soon. My routine will definitely change once we have kids.

Hi Alvin! Great video. However, I have a question - how do you use a RAID log to manage projects? I have looked online but have had a difficult time trying to find a comprehensive example of one and how the RAID log helps manage a project. I'm having a tough time visualizing this. For example, I understand the relationship between risks and issues and I get the relationship between Actions and Decisions/Dependencies, but given that so many actions and decisions are made every day by everyone in the project, how does one deal with that? Is it as simple as just logging EVERYTHING that comes up? Like if a possible action is coming up that requires a decision to follow through, is it just logged?

[@alvinthepmofficial]

@Nam Nguyen, really glad you found the video helpful! Great question - I don't typically use the RAID Log to capture every single action and every single decision. Otherwise, my RAID Log would have more than 100+ items on it. Instead, I recommend focusing on the most important ones (high impact and high severity) that you discuss with your team and including it on your RAID Log. (For example, very critical actions that are on the critical path, which may delay procurement of parts or the completion of hardware design). I'll be releasing a video soon about using the RAID Log, so stay tuned!

[@args2003]

@@alvinthepmofficial I just obtained my CAPM in December, so videos on how to get into Project Management with no experience as a CAPM would be GREAT! Thanks Alvin for all your help.

[@oluwasholabalogun2201]

[@alvinthepmofficial]

So glad you found it insightful! Will definitely be releasing more videos about a career as a project manager, and leveling up as well, so be sure to stay subscribed so you don't miss out when I release those videos!

[@mohasoamakara5085]

Hi Alvin. Great video indeed and highly insightful. Makara from Afraca, Lesotho. Just a quick one, would you have a few minutes on Teams for a few questions?

[@josephjeremiashjamil6915]

Hi alvin, thanks for this vid. I am currently taking up the goole pm professional certificate. do you think it will help me to land a job?

[@alvinthepmofficial]

@Joseph Jeremiash Jamil, I'm so glad you found the video helpful! Absolutely, it's something you can include on your resume to stand out, and it'll give you a very good foundation in Project Management that you can use to update your resume and it'll help you level up when you're speaking the project manager lingo during your interview. I'll be releasing even more videos to help you land a Project Manager job, so definitely stay tuned!

[@radink7062]

I'm ready to start 5 days journey

[@PMWay]

Hi Alvin. I need your mentorship in project Management. I am a student project manager ans seeking expereince. How do i reach u?

[@alvinthepmofficial]

So glad that you're finding my videos and content helpful! I'm currently booked, in the meantime, I recommend checking out the videos on my channel - I cover everything from writing a resume, landing a job interview, to mastering project management skills, growing your career as a PM, and using specific software. Stay subscribed, because I will be releasing a future video about advice that I wish I knew when I was starting out in my career.

[@davem8114]

I made it to about 15 minutes when the wooden 'I like using the Braun yada yada' sprang up. I've paid to remove ads on KZbin so I can't cope with all this mentioning of specific products. Don't care if it's guerrilla advertising or just a misplaced view that people interested in PM work want product advice shoved at them every 20 seconds. I'm a PMP PM btw - would really not recommend anything to anyone as I have weird taste,,,,,actually I did like the MS Arc nouse as ut folds flat and can fit into a file when rushing around (matters less these days with remote). Don't even know if they still make them :) Seriously, more on realistic *actual* activity and less on the peripheral activities would be better IMO. Sorry for being negative mate

[@alvinthepmofficial]

Thanks for the feedback, no offense taken! Will use your feedback to improve my future videos

[@ultratechtech]

hi

[@alvinthepmofficial]

Hello!

[@kanubee]

Probably better to confine the video to the actual work day. The morning wake up routine before then seems purely indulgent.

[@mantogoca]

Update the title PM single and no kids. 😂 life is totally different when you have a family.

[@alvinthepmofficial]

I completely agree that life is completely different when you have kids. I am actually not single, happily married - I don't show my wife to respect her privacy, and we're still working on trying to have kids.

[@Sumariorapido-ES]

say sorry if i see you don't take a shower
