Getting Things Done: Starting Vs. Finishing

A great article by D. Keith Robinson about the challenges of starting, and yes finishing a project. Almost everyone has issue with some part of the project. Sadly I’ve got more then a little of both. I find that when I start to stress and procrastinate. I take a breath. Give myself a set amount of time to just relax, usually about 5 minutes. Then I try to dive in to the task. First breaking it up into small manageable chunks. I try to do 1-2 easy items so I get a feeling of accomplishment, then tackle a medium to large sized item once I am more in my zone.

How do you get over your work hump?

The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Web 2.0: Top 25 Apps to Grow your Business

A pretty cool list of web 2.0 applications for business related needs. I’m not sure why they listed Google calendar instead of Google Apps for Your Domain, as with domains you get customized google email, the ability to build a basic site, and a few other Google apps. Check it out.

I would also note I’m currently trying Wesabe out for my financial planning needs. I’ll try to get a short article up after I’ve done my second month on the app.

Any other killer apps I should be trying out?
