The biggest causes of wasted time for me are heart issues. One is laziness, particularly the tendency to avoid tasks I don't feel like doing right at the moment. If I have an unpleasant duty before me, I've learned that I need to tackle it immediately, lest I fritter away half the day doing utterly useless things like browsing around on Facebook or shopping online for awesome Green Bay Packer merchandise. Another source of wasted time for me is perfectionism (which explains my affinity for the Packers, right?). I lose countless hours simply revising, retooling, rewriting, etc. Who knows how many other things I could get done if I were less obsessive (read: more humble). My solution for this problem? I'm trying to lern to live with typos.
