I could have named this post "Being busy does not pay the Bills"… "Don’t confuse activity with productivity" or anything along those lines.
Bottom line — be productive, not active.
But it’s not easy.
t’s 6:20AM Tuesday morning - like I do every morning I walk upstairs to my home office — boot up my computer — check my email and begin my day (first mistake).
It is now 10:22AM — I’ve finished replying to customer emails… finished replying to inquiries on the services I offer… answered some personal emails… and visited the forums where I received a follow up post email — four hours.
Time to get to work. First, I need to check my voice mail.
Good… I only have four messages. Let me return these calls real quick before I "start" my day.
Shoot… it’s 11:18AM — think I’ll grab something to eat.
Okay… time to get busy — but I need to check my web sites and blogs real quick to make sure they are still up and running. Good… they are still there.
