Internet pal Dave Farquhar recently blogged about his Fifteen Minutes a Day theory. Says Dave:
A few months ago, someone actually posted something helpful: a suggestion that you spend 15 minutes a day working on your hobby instead of talking about it.
Fifteen minutes isn’t a lot of time, but that’s the point. You can almost always find 15 minutes. And 15 minutes isn’t enough time to accomplish anything major, but you can accomplish lots of little things, and getting those little things out of the way can make things more productive on those days when you have a big block of time you can dedicate to it.
I think this is a terrific idea and one I plan on implementing, although I hope to still be able to find time to talk about my adventures as well. Dave goes on to mention that fifteen minutes a day adds up to 91 hours and 15 minutes a year, although I think he forgot that 2008 is a leap year so this year you’ll actually get in 91.5 hours of work.
