How is your time allocated?

December 14, 2008

in less is more

I’ve been all over the place this week, not sticking to my schedule, procrastinating like you wouldn’t believe and I’ve left myself with a big workload to complete over the next week. This led to thinking about how my time is used. On a work day, 5 days a week, this is how I think my day should be allocated and this is what I’m working towards from now on.

34% Work – 9 hours
29% Sleep – 7 hours
13% Family/Home
12% Business/Internet
8% Travel
4% Me/Beauty routine etc (lol)

If I stuck to this plan it would have two benefits. Firstly I would get much more sleep and secondly I would have 2 whole days free every week, instead of having to do work catch up!

Does anyone else plan their time down to the last minute?

Wow – that’s quite scary when you look at it – my internet one would be the highest probably.. :-)

Oh to have two whole days to fill as we liked.. Yeah I’m dreaming too!

Great idea! I don’t but I need to. Since I started blogging, I have spent way more time online than ever…

I don’t but I should! I would probably spend too much time at work and online.

I had the last two weeks all planned out so I could start Christmas week with everything done. A nasty virus put paid to that and after one day of fretting I have decided that it is not worth worrying over.

I try to, but it doesn’t always work out that way. You know, kids fussy, need something… etc. Like today. It’s good to have a plan though!

I’m a procrastinator too, so I totally understand where you’re coming from. Right now there’s about 10 things on my TO DO list that I should be doing rather than squizzing at interesting blogs…but hey :)

How are you getting on with your plan?
