I have a poor sleep schedule I've been trying hard to fix, to no avail.<p>I procrastinate to the extreme of often doing nothing for an entire work day (I'm a contractor and I just don't bill it!)--but because I won't let myself do the things I truly want, I end up on HN or similar for a large part of my day and accomplish nothing at work and much less than I could in other endeavors.<p>I'm interested in learning how to repair engines but it's hard to find approachable material online when I have a problem. Typically you end up reading tons of forums and deciphering lingo. (I know very little in the first place)<p>I have too many half-built projects.<p>My posture is suffering from sitting in a chair all day. That chair is a recliner (I work at home). I think I'm also experiencing poor circulation in my legs, perhaps from the recliner or the laptop sitting on my legs (it's a large, ~8lb laptop). I want to get back to the gym but my aforementioned terrible sleep schedule really gets in the way of that--just an excuse, perhaps.<p>Cricket just switched their cellular service to GSM from CDMA after AT&T bought them. Now I have a $600 brick, as none of the other CDMA services will take cricket phones for reasons they won't disclose to me.<p>I can't find enough time for all of my hobbies.<p>A business started with family members has caused strain and conflict, and the issues are going largely unresolved, with one person seemingly reaping the entirety of the benefit.<p>I could go on, if I thought harder!
I farmed out some tasks out to people on fiverr, but I find that writing sufficient specifications takes almost as long as doing the task itself. It would be nice to have a better workflow system to minimize time spent doing each step or at the junction of a context switch in the process.
