Yep, I’ve added a new category to this blog, Motivation + Multi Tasking.
At the moment I’ve got tonnes of work I want to do and not enough time to do it in, although my deadlines are fairly flexible, I still want to get stuff done as soon as possible due to profitability.
Last week I couldn’t do that much I was on child care duty with the school mid term break. At the weekend I was reading a marketing book, which I only got half read. During the week I’m reading a software development book on a new language, for me.
I’ve also got a couple of projects which are about 90% complete where I need to regroup and plan out how to finish them.
I had been reading the development book solidly for over a week before the break and I was worried I’d forget stuff after a week, but I didn’t. I’m thinking I might continue with the marketing book today. But I’d rather be doing the development book.
I do a little work in the evenings but I like to spend time with my family, I guess I could sit up late, but I’m always so tired. If only there were more hours in the day and I could use them

You gave me some good advice a while ago which is not
to get distracted by other projects. Lately, I’m trying
hard to follow this advice.
What I’d suggest is that you pick one project and finish it
first, then move onto the next.
If you need to make times in the evening, if you can’t
get a clear 1 hour period, don’t bother – you’ll spend
more time setting up and shutting down than working.
Plan a regular time each day where all you do is work.
Sticking to your daily timetable might make it easier to
fit in your family and other commitments without feeling
you have too many things competing for your attention.
