The 7th Deadly Sin of Blogging — err…Getting Things Done
Posted under Goals and Goal Setting, Productivity
Chris Garrett over at Performancing has put together a good post about the effects of procrastination on your ability to create a great blog. However, his ideas can be applied to all areas where we want to succeed. From career advancement, earning more money, better relationships…Yes, being slothful can affect your ability to do all of these things and more.
His list of 6 sloth producers and how to deal with them:
- Distractions - there is always something more interesting to do. Reward yourself by getting the dull stuff done now so you can get to the more enjoyable tasks
- Hunger - make sure you feed yourself, I find I just can not concentrate unless I have eaten but be careful to not over do it as being bloated is just as bad!
- Dehydration - it’s right what they say, you need to regularly drink fluids, preferably not the ones that make you desperate for … comfort breaks
- Lack of oxygen - I always think and work better when I get time to get out in the fresh air
- Lack of interest - so important I don’t mind reiterating over and over, if you are starting a blog write about something you are interested in, it makes maintaining it long term so much easier
- Fatigue - get rest, people who are tired not only do less work, the work they produce is crap
