Never Eat Lunch With a Friend...

I was going to be really awesome today. I had my goals set out in stone:

1) Finish a client (CHECK btw)
2) Do three articles for the lovely Sarita (erm, working on that)
3) Do two articles for each of my other three clients (HA HAHAHAHA!)

Yeah.

Instead, I got distracted by a friend I haven't seen in a while and lunch. It was my own bloody fault; every time I tried to leave, I'd start talking again. ^^'. But lunch was fun, I'm just dealing with the aftereffects of having only completed 1/3 goals for the day.

Even when I leave the house, i still manage to get distracted! Maybe I'm just easily distracted, ha ha. Being a work at home anybody in theory means knowing how to mitigate and minimize distractions so that you get your work done. Unfortunately, the reality isn't so much mitigating distractions as learning to work with them so that you still get stuff done, but you acknowledge the fact that it won't be as much as you set out to do. I don't think I've ever successfully finish all my goals for a day; usually I manage 2/3 or a 3/4 sort of thing. It's best not to get frustrated, upset or angry with yourself or you will probably just end up doing less work because you're too distracted by your annoyance at yourself!

So, I'm off to achieve at least 2/3 of my goals for today and then start over again tomorrow night. Such is life!
