My Favorite Ways to Waste Time and get nothing done

Dan Briffa · 07-06-2009, 02:55 AM

Twittering has been a bad one for me, i even had tweetdeck on my second monitor to keep an eye out all day !!

I have stopped doing that now though... :-/

Haha Scott - this really made me laugh and is very honest of you!

I was going to take a course at our local college on "Beating Procrastination" but I just couldn't be bothered to go....

Seriously though it is difficult when you work from home as compared to working in an office with others. I often think I am wasting time by twittering or posting here or clearing my desk etc. But then I remember when I did work in an office how much time was wasted talking to friends about last nights TV or the football or cricket etc. Then the extended lunchtimes in the pub....

In reality I don't think we waste time but find something to fill it with. If we were so motivated to do something "useful" then we would do it. If I know I need to work to earn money to survive or pay the bills then I will do it. If the pressure isn't on then I am on twitter or here or a couple of other forums that I interact with. I don't think it is wasted time as I am building relationships and a long term benefit....sound convincing don't I?

Cheers Keith
