We be burnin'

Like many others on the blogosphere, I am feeling tired and inert (I was looking for a midpoint between creative and destructive!). Are bloggers starting to suffer burnout? I seem to be noticing a slowdown generally in the number of posts on the blogs I read, with some notable exceptions

Anyway, rather than stop posting to the blog (let's face it, I don't suffer from over-blogging!), I would make a bit more of an effort to organise my time, and see if I could determine any pattern for how these guys do it.
First stop; make a to-do list! I found a very simple web-based tool called voo2do, it's missing a few things - like dependencies - but it does the job fairly well.
Second, reduce the size of my posts; just take a story and say in 20 words what I might ordinarily say in 200. This is proving difficult... :)
Third, JFP; Roughly translated, this means don't spend too long thinking about how you want to say something. Just say it, clear and simple. Somewhat related to the point above.
Fourth, spend more time with the family; There's nothing worse than trying to spend more time in the office to get things done. Go home! The more time you spend there the less anguished you will feel about being in the office, and surprisingly, you might end up getting more done. The French are apparently the most productive people in the world; their secret? They work so little that it's a wonder anything gets done at all!
I used to say to people I managed who would be working till 11 at night or later to finish some work that they should have done during the day, "Go home, if you don't do this tonight who is going to die? You're not a surgeon, you're a programmer for a telecom billing application"

PS. I bet Om never got round to "Clean my office, catalog all the paper" - that's just one of those placeholders that eventually gets ticked when you move office - catalog under 'trash'!
