I have been managing international teams on global improvement programmes for FTSE and Fortune 100 companies for the last 10 years or so, and have a pretty good grasp on managing productivity from myself and teams of up to 100 - but still loads to learn.

Got my Prince2 foundation, and familiar with it through various public sector contracts.

I am a long term member of Mensa, the high IQ society, and head up two professional bodies in Scotland: ISACA and the Institute of Information Security Professionals.

Have founded two consultancies, and run large teams for two global professional services firms - so have an excellent view of the balance required at both ends.

Tend to look at the bigger picture, rather than the benefits of a specific tool.

comment Food (meals) tracking
The functionality you request in your question does not provide nutrition information at all. Forget about the photos and go with something like MyFitness Pal as described below, which tracks nutrition, exercise and weight.

Hi Shaima - welcome to the site. Please read the faq and have a look at other questions here to see the type that are suitable. Your question is not about productivity, and as nikita mentioned, is more of a philosophical query.

comment How to remain calm during a tense period?
You may think that, but imagine a scale that works for you. At one end you'd have minor inconveniences, and at the other perhaps loss of life. Viewed in this wider scale, perspective can help you focus your attention on those areas that matter.
