Time, Time, Time

I’m constantly feeling like I need more hours in the day. I’m sure you know the feeling. You wake up and you have a list of things to do. For me the list usually looks something like this:

    check my email
    write an article
    check my email again
    write another article
    fix lunch
    check my email

You get the drift.

No matter how well I think I’ve planned my day I can’t get everything done on my long to-do-list. My husband will happily tell you that my problem is that I check my email way too much. I admit to being a chronic email checker, but it only takes 5 to 30 minutes to sort through the millions of newsletters, yahoo groups updates, and Google alerts that flood my inbox throughout the day. That’s not that long really, is it?

    I so know what you mean. There was a book Getting Things Done – David Allen (yes, I know, another book!) and some of the suggestions helped me with my daily/weekly/months tasks. Its been a while since I put them into practice so this is a good reminder for me…

    Sounds like a good book. I should check it out once I’ve dug myself out from all the other books I’m reading right now.
