The 25-Hour Day:

Work, Sleep or Play?

     I am about to find more hours in the day to get something important done that I’ve been choosing to backseat since December. I know, I can almost hear all those sharp little skeptical, sarcastic comments now. But, you know what? I’m going to make more time anyway.

     Here’s the background: This is my 311th blog post in the past 370 days, and almost all of those missed were in the first couple of months. It takes me 1-2 hours every night to write, edit, post and cross-promote visitors to the blog through posts on other sites and networks.

     Kathy gave me a webcam for Christmas, and I haven’t made the time to use it or play with it enough to make it be a useful tool. Fridays are the slowest nights for blog visits. Makes sense, right? Who sits around on Friday nights reading blogs?

     Beginning tomorrow, Friday, May 1, 2009, I am going to stop writing Friday blog posts and use the time to start mastering the webcam and applications of it so that I can develop and deliver a series of video clips that will slowly replace Friday night written posts over the next 4-6 weeks, and serve a myriad of other business and educational purposes as well.

     I am working with a range of topics to help:

• Jumpstart entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial ventures without investors 
• Offer step-at-a-time tight-budget marketing how-to’s for business owners and managers 
• Boost professional practice development for doctors and allied medical science and health professionals 
• Spell out proven personal and professional growth and development strategies and tactics for small business and corporate executives that will increase sales 
• Provide little-known proven job-hunting (and hiring) tips 
• Reveal the secrets of keeping “family” in the family business during hard times 
• Lay out a complete menu of practical and realistic ways to grow business in a stagnant economy

. . . among many other “here-and-now” subjects.

     I am planning to create and produce a few series of fast-paced and provocative 3-5 minute video clips. 

     I will greatly appreciate your ideas and feedback about the 3 top topics you would most like to see addressed, and the kinds of input you think would be most helpful to you. The more specific you can be with your suggestions and questions, the more specific I can be with my suggestions and answers. I look forward to hearing from you (email address below; phone number and mailing address at www.TheWriterWorks.com
