How to strike a balance between fun, admin, progression and improving your life?

[Antoinette GTD'er]

Once I created that list, because it was so important to me, I added it to my weekly review for a couple of weeks

Great idea, going to try this.

I use the Things Iphone app as my list manager and what I found was adding a tag that let me know which goal/area of focus that item was associated with helped.

I like this idea too (Vbampton mentioned doing this for project names). Not sure how I will do it with my current tools as I use lists on Word and paper lists, but I will be upgrading my tools soon anyway, maybe getting one of those fancy phones in the new year, or some sort of hand held electronic device.

So from 9am - 12pm I would focus on any tasks that would help me get a job. These could have been interviews, calls to businesses, talking to referrals, etc

That's definately what I need to do! I'm only working 12 hours per week right now, don't have kids, and don't have much of a routine. Splitting my day up into chunks like that might help loads.

So any way hope this give you some ideas.

Yes it certainly does, I'm really grateful for your help
