They should definitely be incorporated into anybody's planning. @ Harri - It looks like you've got a good idea there. I think I'm going to steal the "Fast Chi-Ching" for a post title if that's okay with you. :) @ Michele - I have the hardest time with email. If I answer it, I get distracted. If I don't answer it, I'm so busy thinking about answering it that I don't get anything done. I'm slowly learning to keep my email application down, but it's a work in progress. @ Michael – I forgot about the screamers! They should definitely be incorporated into anybody’s planning.

I start with email to see if there is any news that needs to be answered right away, and now it's time to focus on a little clean up so I can see my way to the original focus of the day. What a mess one can leave if you have more than two clients!!! Aaagh! So, thanks for the input. I'm on my way to clean it all up.

I am in a situation, where I have couple of bigger (software) ideas but I need money before I can implement those ideas since they require more hours I can put in at the moment. To put Naomi's idea to work with software I plan to make a couple of smaller projects (fast chi-ching!). And the best part here is that I take part of the bigger project and release it as a smaller product. This way I can a) learn the technology, b) create a working module for the bigger project and c) most important, build a customer base. I like this idea.

I also use the "who will scream the most if I don't get this done" method. Of course there are times when the biggest screamer is also the least and latest payer. Then I have a tendency to cut them free and seek greener pastures... Very interesting way of deciding what to do! I also use the “who will scream the most if I don’t get this done” method.
