Being online sidetracks me for most part of the day. I am getting terrible day after day in being able to manage my time effectively.
I seem to forget something or the other that needs to be done each day ( scratches head shame facedly)
This is despite the fact that I have a to do list on my comp
How do you mange your time? Are you happy with what you achieve each day?

I can usually manage rest of the stuff while carrying on my writing task other than dusting chore. It's badly hit so before I sit in front of my computer I try to finish that or else that's gone for a toss.
Don't we have to maintain any word limit here? I am unable to find out such details and even don't know how to contact the admin when it's required. Can you help me? Please.

@Shampasaid Welcome to mylot. Good that you get your work done bfore sitting at your desk.. I used to do that but now I am here all day..
Not you don't have any word /character limits on this site. The admin says even a one liner is okay if it is sensible enough to start a discussion.

Back in the day when I was starting my on-line earning, I was often side tracked. Nowadays, I have a good grasp of how I'd spend the day so I still get things done even though I'm on-line.

@sofssu it is a lesson that we learn easily but it takes a lifetime to master. Like you, I'm learning and re-learning it every day.

Being on the computer does tend to side track us. I know I am absolutely bad for that. However, if something gets put off, it will still be there when I get to it. Unless I get a 'fairy' to come do it for me. I would be all for that.

I use to manage my time so well! Then these three younger kids come along and now I am too exhausted to be as organized as I was in the past.

@sofssu Oh I would love some free time. I do love being a mother so I will wait for my free time when they are grown and gone.

@Shellyann36 I understand completely. Now that my children are almost grown up I have more time on my hands. Hope you can get your husband or friends to give you a free day.

I have to do lists all over the place--I even have a list of my lists but I have learned in like if I don't get something done SO WHAT? Oh yes I pay for the roof over my head, the food in my belly and the clothes on my back--nothing else in life is a MUST!

I'm the band wagon with being easily side tracked if it's not for getting message alerts, or work, or going to one room to put something else away and then find something else that needs to attend to, or a phone call, or a kid needs something... i get no where story of my life

@3SnuggleBunnies I am happy to be getting back on track these past few days.. I am sticking to my schedules and have got most of the work done online and offline. Maybe I haven't been online as much.

@sofssu I plan to use it effectively, but i am so lazy that i keep on postponing my time table. Yes i am very effectively using my time ( by postponing). I wish i use my time effectively from now at least.

Yes, I do! I am definitely a multi tasker and am always doing at least two things at once. Time is so short so I want to make the most of it by accomplishing as much as possible.
