I'm in a similar boat, Dale. Full time job in the evening, bringing a kid to school in the morning, then go home and baby-sit the little one during the day.

On weekdays I am averaging 1 to 1.5 hours working on my business, weekends maybe 4 to 6 hours. Hopefully I will be able to squeeze more time once the little on goes to a child care center in a few months.

I definitely don't like it when life gets in the way. But instead of spending my energy complaining about the situation, I learned to shift my focus on the positive things, and do whatever I can do, after some time I actually get more done.

Do you have any good idea on how to utilize pieces of time better and get more done?

Good Morning Dale,

In 1986 I stopped working as a tourist guide. Then I started working really hard on my farm. By the end of 2013 I got a computer and for 2 years I am with WA.
Before breakfast, I have at least 1 hour and by 15.00, lunchtime with Spanish news the computer goes on and normally is shut off only when going to bed.
My better half has complained it is too much and I have put on weight.

Greetings from the south of Spain, Taetske

I try to work as much I can but my normal life is always something going on

I feel your pain! We only allow one sport, one club, and one lesson per child but with four kids at home yet, that's a lot of running. Plus working full-time. I am exhausted right now. We didn't even eat supper until 7:30pm tonight. Which, of course, means that I got the kids to bed late tonight. I almost thought of just going to bed myself but then I remembered my 21-day challenge of writing something on WA every day. And, now that I am here, reading and writing, my energy level has gone up! I had decided to commit to two hours of working on my business every night after the kids go to bed. However, I find that once I start, it's hard to stop. I've been putting in anywhere from three to four hours a night instead. That means that I'm not getting to bed until about 1am. I may have to start forcing myself to go to bed or starting this business may be the death of me. At least I'm having fun while doing it though. :)

Hello so you are from ukrain?

I'm at a snails pace but will get back into the race. Thanks for checking up on the WA family.

I work anywhere from 4 to 8 hours a day, depending on what else is going on.

Life got in the way. I am better now and healing well. I will be back full time soon.

I’ll be moving next month so that will definitely take up some time but trying to keep the stress levels low and move forward as much as possible, even if they’re small steps. :)

I can usually spend quite a bit of time on it. However, I always have a long ‘to do’ list. I never seem to make much headway with the to do list as new items get added all the time. This is usually because either I’ve learned more, so more things to do or I need to learn more. Bit of a viscous cycle really..... wonder of it ever ends?
