It’s a blessing/curse when social media IS a part of your job. I find these tips to be helpful as in it’s a way to but a system to the madness. At http://www.Bill4Time.com, I instinctively go back and forth from what I’m doing to seeing the latest news or posts. Alerts help but sometimes the flood of them can be overwhelming. Most of the time it’s fun, but then there are other times when I really want to get a specific project done and find social media tasks a hassle. Thanks for the tips!

@Pat Law: Yes it has been a year! Pretty damn amazing isn’t it! Yes I do check out appointments weekly (on Friday) as well. Luckily I don’t have the huge workload and responsibilities you do (yet!) thanks for the encouragement!

@thislooksfamiliar: exactly. For the first month or so (before I read the Webworker Daily post) I found myself leaving the office without a clear head or sense of what I have done/have to do the next day. That half an hour really helps keep things together and lets me leave feeling settled.

i especially like your end of day routine. the end of the day usually comes upon me so quickly that i rarely have time to clear out my inbox, task list & desk and spend the first 20 minutes of the next day cleaning up yesterday. i would like to start pretending that 4:30 is 5:00 and leaving the last 30 minutes for this. thanks for the idea.

Coincidentally, I was just thinking about the brand timeline we did previously. Gosh, was it really a year ago? Time flies, doesn’t it?

I admire your ability to do your timesheets daily – I struggle to do them weekly, and even so, it is only so that I won’t get locked out of my email client.

I’d recommend you review appointments on a weekly basis if projects start piling up. Sometimes, a day’s leadtime might not be enough. In the event by which you need to buy time for any project, at least you’d be giving a week’s notice in advance.

A good read by the way. Now if only all rookies have the same attitude.
