Dealing with Personal vs Business Actions
Scottw | Mar 1 2007
For nearly 3 years, I worked second shift, 3-midnight. I was used to taking care of personal "next actions" (while I didn't use GTD then) during my off-time. Now that I am working 8-5 from home, I am having issues juggling "next actions" for things that need to typically be done during regular business hours (like calls, etc) with my work related projects. Even computer issues that might be "business" related, but not really client focused (ie, paying tasks) seem to cause much grief. Does anyone else have/had this issue and how do you deal with it to get success in your days, and keeping focus. I have ADHD, so I'm limping along in focus most of the time. I do take meds, but not 100% effective. 7 Comments

I think my down-fall is not allowing enough time for the things that need to get done that are not "office" related. I've thought about setting aside a "longer period" of time twice per week for personal actions during work time, and just queue them up. But, not everything can wait until the next day or two. Good advice, I will have to give that a try. » POSTED IN:
