It's been done for over a year, and I haven't even attempted to do anything with it. On top of that, book 2 is in the works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804303.post-40002088959299865592008-02-13T16:01:00.000-08:002008-02-13T16:01:00.000-08:00It's funny -- some weeks I just seem to sail along...It's funny -- some weeks I just seem to sail along, and my output on all fronts is amazing (even to me). Then something or other happens -- almost always some event that I classify as "outside interference" -- and I break my stride, so to speak. When that happens, I figuratively stumble around for days, and instead of writing content, and pursuing other tasks that require a certain focus of attention, I write lists for myself, and prioritize the items, and attempt to make a schedule: On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I'll focus on these tasks, and on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, I'll do these bits. Because, like you, I have more things to do than I really have time for, but they all are things I <EM>like</EM> doing. <BR/><BR/>Eventually I hit my stride again and things hum along -- until the next drop-in visitor, or appointment, or other "outside interference" pierces my bubble. Then I'm back to making and prioritizing lists of things to do. <BR/><BR/>There's a cycle there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804303.post-72997031266750924342008-02-11T14:43:00.000-08:002008-02-11T14:43:00.000-08:00Yes, very familiar story--mine, in fact.

Sooner or later, I have to give up some of them. Good luck with yours.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02361658938132430044noreply@blogger.com
