OYOL - Routine not workin' for ya?

You might look into having more of a daily time budget, rather than an actual routine.

When thinking of managing the time in your day, you could make a schedule, routine, or just a time budget. There is no rgiht or wrong method. The goal is simply to accomplish what you need to in a day.

Schedule - tasks done at a specified time each day; little flexibility

Routine - tasks done in a certian order, but not at a specified time; more flexibility

Time Budget - tasks done within a specified time limit (no more; no less); flexibility in structure, but not in length of time spent on any given thing.

  3. I'm kind of between a schedule and a routine kind of person. At least that's when I function the best...which explains why this week's been bad. I haven't kept to my schedule and routine. But. Tomorrow's another day...!
