In project you don't have a time (if you think to spend some time with your
family but you can't) you have to be very active concentrate your job in any
minute to minute in project division.

A project is a stand alone work, one that is not part of the regular
operations or work performed by a person or organisation. A project has a
beginning and an end. Operations, once started, continue as an ongoing process
and are expected to continue with adjustments for perpetuity.

A project is different from other types of work in the following ways.

1. A
project has a definite start and also a definite end.

2. A project is a
unique one off activity, ie, it is not a repetitive activity

3. The
resource requirements in a project are not uniform. Requirements follow a bell
shaped curve.

4. Projects are generally a complex combination of many
types of activities

5. The level of specialization required is generally
very high in projects.

6. Project are highly customized
