I don’t know how your typical day goes, but if it’s similar to mine, more days than not I end up with a few items left on my to do list that roll over to the next day. In my opinion, roll over minutes are much cooler than roll over tasks. That got me thinking recently about good work habits.

I recently heard about a favorite company of mine moving to a four day work week. They take Fridays off and guess what. They’re just as productive.

How can that be?

They cut out all the procrastination, dilly-dallying, and small talk that creeps in to the day.

This makes me wonder not only about my writing life, but work life and just life in general. Am I as effective as I could be? How can I develop better habits (in all things)?

I know there are dozens (okay, probably thousands) of articles, books, and tapes on this. Surely you’ve read one over the years. Help me out. I’d love to hear your tips and recommended reading. If I get any great advice I’ll post it to CataU so we can all benefit.

Happy Writing,
Ally
