Time Management

I am applying to the Micro to Millions program, the sister event to the Make Mine a Million $ Business. We don't qualify for the Make Mine a Million since we have not been in business for at least 2 years, but that doesn't mean that we don't have the chops ;-)

I am submitting a video to accompany the application. Do you realize how hard that is? I figured that since I am a relatively comfortable speaker, the recording process would take less time than it took to clean my desk. 20 takes and 2 hours later I couldn't get through an entire taping without making a stupid flub. It is actually funny, but you can see from the change in the background lighting that the day was ending. I finally came away with a recording that I could live with, but this is just one example of how my time disappears from me before I know it.

I am getting better about limiting how much time I will spend on a given activity, but I still feel like sleep is a waste of valuable time right now. There is so much that needs to get done and deadlines that have passed. Should I even mention how shot the Verify-crED development schedule is? You just want time to stand still.

Well, my time for this activity is done.

Joelle,

I hate to inform you but you can die quicker from sleep deprevation than from not eating!
