It’s easy to plug along doing the jobs that scream the loudest for attention and never settle down to do some honest planning. Well, I want to get out of that trap and start planning every Monday morning. That’s what it is today, Monday morning—the day before national elections, whoopee!
1. Blogs. Do a blog in the morning and another one at night so they are renovated on a regular basis.
2. Working hours.
- 8:30 to 12 noon Work on office stuff and email etc
- 12 to 1:30 Do some housework and exercise. Run errands.
- 1:30 to 3:30 Work
- 3:30 to 4:30 break for lunch
- 4:30 to 5:30 Review writing that needs to be done
- 5:30 to 9 pm Try to put in 2-3 hours of heavy writing
- 9 pm Slow down, draw, read, play the piano
- Asleep by 10:30
That’s about eight hours of focused work every day. Now…What needs to be done this week?
- Work on Cliff’s book. Just get in there and do it!
- Roy is going to call me about 6 pm
- Clean off my desk
- Request senior discount with City of Caldwell
- Qualify for COMPASS work
- Listen to CD
- Study material on the Web
- Plan next HealthWorks (story list due Friday)
- Call Toshiba re problems with email (first identify the problems)
- Earthlink is still billing me. Call Qwest.
- Vote: McGee, Minick, LaRocco, Obama and guess on the rest
Work hard. Don’t complain. Work is fun!
