Surprise. I actually did manage to try out my new process for social media activities for the whole week. I thought I’d give you a quick update, for those of you trying to get a handle on it yourselves.
I didn’t manage to get all my activities done everyday, I’m thinking it’s okay to miss a day rather than do something sucky just to put a tick mark on my worksheet. But, I did time out everything and on average I’m spending ….. wait for it…… 35 minutes a day on social media activities. That’s manageable.
The average does swing a bit based on two things.
How many blogs or articles I’m writing in the day (over the week it’s 5 blogs posts and 1 article as a goal).
How hard I have to look for blogs to comment on with something interesting to say. I try to give some value in my comments so it can take between 5 and 15 minutes to complete this activity.
Facebook and twitter take so little time I don’t bother with adding it up.
So, I’m calling victory over the time suck.
Have a great week.
Perry

Perry, Thanks for the comment on my blog post. I see you are pulled in many directions, too. I’m sure you truly feel the winds of guilt as I do. I guess they are going to blow no matter what we do. The main thing is that we don’t let them mess up our hair.
Glad I found you. I’ve enjoyed perusing your blog.

Hi, I love your blog, so it was a treat to comment. I think that days when you are stuck in the galeforse of guilt, having good hair is a way to hold on to the shreds of sanity.
