Productivity vs Procrastination

Ironic, isn’t it. In December I had planned to write a blog post in January with tips about boosting productivity. There followed my longest period of NOT blogging!! It is now 22nd April and this is my first blog post of the year. It’s not that I haven’t found useful ways to boost my productivity – it is just that my productivity wasn’t directed toward my blogging!

One of the killers of blogging productivity is to plan too detailed an article. I put off one post as I didn’t have the screenshot I wanted, and never got round to making time to getting it. With a growing family my time is getting a lot more squeezed so I have decided that continuing this blog regularly is more important than writing screeds. If an idea is worth spreading, it shouldn’t be so complex to get across that it demands several paragraphs and accompanying pictures – after all it isn’t as though this is commercial and the editor is going to sack me for not writing a certain quota.

So my tip for fellow bloggers, and particularly for myself,  is to write short and sweet to get the idea out there. Your blogs are editable and can be beefed up later.
