Rework

I’ve just finished “Rework“ – a new book from 37signals guy. Very cool and very useful. It is about how to work better. After reading it I realized there are things I do wrong constantly. Three is my confession :

I use word “easy” far to often. Others’ job seems to me more simple than it really is. I’ll try to use word “simple” about my job only. If you find me telling you that your job is simple I owe you $5. Seriously.

Next sin is I work too much. Usually, 9+ hours a day without reading news or blogs or something, that’s too much. I do not fill very tired but I want to stop it anyway. Fortunately, my employee does not pay me for extra hours which should help.

And one more thing to think about. I’ve not considered writing as something serious. I write this blog like a small game with myself. Alex Yakunin once advised me to write something more useful than posts like this one. Probably, he was right.
