Seriously, how do people with real jobs do it? This is a rough outline of my daily schedule. There’s not enough hours in the day.
Morning:
Run 1-2 miles (all I can do now without knee/shin pain), come back home and keep my heart rate up with pushups/pullups/jumprope while doing audio French lessons
Work:
Get public speaking website up
Continue Thirty Day Challenge niche marketing projects
Learn aweber’s mailing list software to integrate with both the above
Prepare for upcoming speeches
Learn something about real estate
Play:
Get electrical engineering nerd fix by wiring a kill switch into my car
Practice steel drums
Practice bagpipes
Practice guitar
Write
Recreational reading:
The God Delusion, by Richard Dawkins
The Blank Slate, by Steven Pinker
Harry Potter in Spanish (currently working on book 4)
I’m falling behind, and I think the secret is to make my evenings more productive. I’m trying to maintain a consistent sleep schedule (go to bed at 2am every night, wake up at 10 am every day) which has been great because it matches my natural body clock and keeps weekends from throwing me out of whack too much. But if I don’t start getting some work done between say, 10pm and 2am I’m not going to make any progress. My new plan is to concentrate my intellectually taxing work in the the middle of the day and catch up on the braindead stuff (emails, etc) in the evenings. I’m hoping to add dance lessons and Brazilian jiu jitsu in the near future, but I’m forcing myself to get my schedule handled first. Good luck to me!

You disgust me.
You don’t disgust me Niels.
He’s just angry because he’s stuck waking up at 7am Monday through Friday and working in an office for 10 hours.
I think your schedule rules.
As someone who takes dance classes in Redmond, I look forward to reading about your experiences with dance lessons.
