Working Productively

You know, for some reason you hear more of the same old sayings around marketing people than in any other field I believe.

I just got through seeing ‘analysis paralysis’ again for the 345,23 time in a few months. Okay, maybe not exactly, but probably close.

I guess I’m pretty slow…I’m just now figuring out I’m slow, so I have to be REAL slow. For some reason it just hit me when I saw that phrase the last time. It’s about me.

I always thought I was actually staying busy, getting things done, but I really noticed that I mostly waste time jumping from one thing to the next. Don’t get me wrong, I’m better than a lot of people that never do ANYTHING other than read, hang out in forums, and maybe actually buy some hosting (but never put up a site).

I have got several sites going, and I’ve even got some domains waiting with a couple projects ‘in the works’, right. They’ll get done…eventually.

My point here though, is that for the amount of time I spend online, I should probably be retired!! I don’t have the paralysis thing, but I guess I have something similar. I just noticed that in this window where I have FireFox running, I have (8) EIGHT open!! Maybe some of you can work efficiently like that, but all I do is jump around, looking at things that don’t help me in any way, shape, or form.

I’m turning over a new leaf…No more windows/tabs going than I actually need for what I’m currently doing. I going to stay focused on one (maybe 2) things at once. I know I can get much more done with the time I have. Now let’s see exactly what I’m able to achieve.

Maybe I’ll be the next ‘Rich Jerk’, hopefully not. :)
