Hi everyone, I am in a bit of a situation and would benefit from suggestions:

\​

Currently I have a EU-based WFH gig that is quite good, but has a lot of free time 50% of the working week, where I’ve been procrastinating for the majority of and it got me thinking I need to do more with my time and potentially invest my time into something that might be of purpose in the future.

I am a Production Manager of sorts for a large media outlet and I’d think my mostly transferable skills to build upon are scheduling, budgeting, aptitude to understand complex technological ideas, Excel and Office tools and (on a good day) communications. I was curious if just by reading this bit, some of you might have interesting areas for me to try and explore, see if something sticks ?

I am not asking for anyone to do any heavy lifting for me, just some guidance as I’ve spent the last 10 years or so to get a role in my desired field, be good at what I do and now I am realising with some of the day-to-day automation I’ve implemented to my tasks that I find myself with a lot of free and valuable time that I am wasting. I am truly after outside perspectives, as beyond my field I have no idea what else is out there really.

    First of all congratulations on getting your desired job, and cheers to you for having that perspective and an open mind! I could offer you some suggestions but before doing that I wanna know how you want to utilize your free time, do you want to do something productive? Capitalize on your current skills? or take a risk and do something completely different?
