Coming Back To ...

How much time should it take to return to your normal routine when you've been missing out from it for almost a month? It will be 2 weeks today since I returned back to work after a not so nice Chicken Pox experience, but still haven't returned to what I would call One Hundred Percent Efficiency. Trust me when I say it's best to get it in your childhood, than mid-20s. But the new Scarface is more charming around the ladies than the soft spoken, handsome, homely, nice guy. So I guess I should be happy.
But not all is good, I am still stuck at the same chapter of Professional ASP.net 2 I was on June 28th, rather I am 6 chapters behind (as I am on a revision tour).
I figure I need something inspirational, like a little more than a month ago when I learnt of the new found romance of a certain friend, it had the same effect on me as Spinach on Popeye. I reloaded my web site's design, I doubled my learning speed of ASP.net, I got rid of a time wasting habit. I finally managed my personal routine. Boy! Talk of a Project Manager with serious time management issues… All of this in the short span of 10 days before I had to put breaks because of the Chickenpox.
I guess watching Apollo 13 one more time; will do for the time being.

  2. I've been following the GTD routine since the beginning of this year. It's been wonderful for me, it's helped me manage projects far efficiently, been a blessing for the perfectionist in me. What's messed up is my personal schedule, particularly the routine tasks :(

  3. Why are you treating your personal schedule differently from your work schedule ?  Manage both of them using the GTD :-)
