So, here I am at March and once again, I find that I haven’t followed through on my “resolutions.” Calling them something else doesn’t seem to have been much help. My excuse being that I’ve been very busy and haven’t been finding much time for any kind of writing. Unfortunately, the things I’ve been “busy” at, aren’t really very beneficial.
It is time to seek the path once more. I’ve spent the past few days re-vamping my schedule, adding more detail, to provide myself with a more structured framework. Instead of vague suggestions, my calendar is now filled with exact time-frames for each task each day. I am fully aware that it won’t work like that, but having the nagging reminders pop up on both my phone and my computer should help me, at least, stay on the map.
It seems that I used to get a lot more done in a day than I have been lately. I kind of slipped into a Facebook maze, getting lost in the twists and turns of games, videos, fascinating side trails, and political ranting. Part of my commitment is to depart from Facebook by 9am and not go back until after 9pm. I know I will miss many things this way, but I expect to gain many more important things.
One goal that I’ve totally ignored since January was to post to my blogs more often. Besides this one, I have 3 others and I gone totally off the follow-up trail on all of them. As part of my “new and improved” scheduling effort, I intend to post to each one weekly on different days. This one on Tuesday, my writing blog on Wednesday, our company site on Thursday, and our Roadtrip site on Saturday. All follows and comments will be duly appreciated since knowing someone is reading what I write helps me to keep focused.
