That’s a question from The 4-Hour Work Week. It’s a good question. It’s easy to put the important things at the end of a list, after knocking out a bunch of little things. What one thing will you be satisfied to have done today if you do nothing else?
For me, it’s writing. I also have to take care of small people and herd them through education, but if I don’t get this story further along, I won’t be satisfied.
Unfortunately, today the one thing I have to get done is laundry. The second thing is my income taxes (I’m hoping my refund will be enough to pay for RT and possibly going to Lori Foster’s soire in Ohio.
Are you going to any conferences this year? (I’m sure you told me, I just can’t remember- the short-term memory is shot).
I doubt very much I’ll travel anywhere this year, although something in the middle of the county is a possibility (like RAW). RWA and RT are both at the far ends of the country from me and it’s just too far.
RAW? I haven’t heard of that one.
Reader Appreciation Weekend. But it’s very unlikely I’ll make it anywhere this year. Will see where major events are next year, if anything’s in the middle or west coast.
Somedays it seems as though there is too much to do and not enough time.
It’s a good day when any writing is done.
Writing makes any day a good day. And even when everything doesn’t get done, getting even one page down keeps things on track.
