Missing In Action
Can you believe that I was missing in action yesterday? Actually I was right here at the office. I just forgot the blog. I cannot even blame it on being too busy. I just plain forgot AGAIN!
Yesterday was another goof off day. We went to the Farmer’s Market for some fresh produce. That was the about all we accomplished. The rest of the day was spent here at the warehouse, but it was far from productive.
Consistency is one of the keys to success. It is also one of greatest challenges. If we would work at a steadier pace and consistent output, we could probably make more money and get more time off. It just does not make sense to spend all this time at “work” and not work.
This is one of the things that anyone trying to make a living by being self employed must come to grips with. Being at work is not the same as working. I try to convince myself that a minimum quantity of work is better than nothing, but I still often get nothing.
Yes, we are making more, but we could make even more and solve a lot of problems financially if we would just stay at it for the entire time we are at work. If I was an employer employing me, I do not think I would be pleased with my productivity. In fact, I would probably have a talk with me and let me know my job was on the line if I did not improve.
WOW! Am I that bad off? I think it is time to start really evaluating what is going on. We had a good spurt of work to meet the new rent, but we are slacking off. I really think we could “work” fewer hours if we could work more effectively.
