Scheduling Your Time
Just over 3 months here (and just under 3 months with my website) and I am starting to realise that I have gone about things in a totally haphazard way. I have written posts as and when I can, snatching any moment to write a bit here and there.
I don`t have to tell you why this is silly.
I have not approached my website like a job, more like a hobby and now I am just starting to see some traction on social media, I need some structure to my week to help me to schedule my time.
Whats involved?
So, although I am not doing it yet, I have an initial plan to start in a week or so. Starting it on a Monday just makes sense to me.
- Monday: Research keywords and products to review
- Tuesday: Narrow down and select item or subject to cover
- Wednesday:In depth research on the item selected including if needed photos or pictures.
- Thursday:Outline article including 1st draft.
- Friday: Continue work on article.
- Saturday:Finish article up
- Sunday: Promote on social media.
Summary
This is just a draft plan, but weaving all this around my 9-5 day job, two kids and a partner will need a bit of work, and overall I think I need to stay flexible. Without flexibiity, I may find myself failing.
Thanks for reading all, This is more for my own reference but if it helps you, please let me know!

Thank you for your draft plan
After I have not plan, I realize that "NOT plan is plan to failure"

Indeed...schedule your time or your time will schedule you!...and it is the one fact of the human condition we cannot retrieve...
Absolutely! I thought by compartmentalising my time in this way would stop me panicking about getting an article done every week. Why sit down and relax with a coffee in front of the TV when you can relax with a coffee and research your next article.
Coincidentally, thats what I am doing now!
I completely understand!...Press On!
