And I’m working and playing MS Flight Simulator at the same time whilst reading this! But the plane’s on autopilot.

Yeah, a bit distraction for me is family and games.

I use a timer to limit the amount of time I spend on social networking websites. It keeps me from frittering away my day on one small component of my online presence. I try to be particularly diligent on Pinterest. I could pin for hours.

Hi Matt,
thanks for your comment. Right balance is, as you said, very important, but sometimes it’s almost impossible to find it 🙂

Emails take up a large portion of my day, time that I could be using to work on my site. I get 100+ emails every day, some business related, some SPAM, so I have to make sure I go through them and answer all the important ones.

Social media is also a bit of a distraction, but it’s also an important part of blogging. I guess it’s about finding the right balance.
