There aren’t enough hours in the day – a few tips to get a little more time

Well, as much as I have pondered and hoped, I don’t think there’s going to be away any time soon for us to magically increase the numbers of hours in the day. You may suggest giving up a few hours of sleep, but I’ve tried that … and let’s just say that the monster I become isn’t worth those extra hours of productivity because I need at least a day or two to recover, so the whole thing is essentially an exercise in futility. So how on earth can we get just a little extra time in our day? Is it too much to ask? Well, it can be difficult, but there are a few ways to get a little extra time in your day, and the answer is not magic. So … here we go!

Blogging advice #1 … Tips for writing a last minute blog post

One of the blog topics that I saw a few people were interested in from the feedback form I sent out was about blogging advice or tips.
