			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With all the work projects, I too often get stuck in tactical work. This is the day to day maintenance that seems to take up 45 of my 40 hours each week.</p>
<p>This includes daily content posting, server backups, application development, to-do list processing etc. </p>
<p>Because of the endless supply of filler these tasks provide, I never am really able to organize the longer term strategy behind what I do. I am rarely able to assess the overall flow of a website, or generate long term goals to direct the way I handle the day to day content.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I am constantly thinking about this stuff and have a vague idea of where I want to go. I just don&#8217;t spend quality time quantifying these ideas, and organizing these thoughts.</p>
<p>To start moving this direction (beyond the tactical and to the strategic), I am beginning to schedule 1 hour (that&#8217;s all) a week to sit away from my computer/blackberry/telephone/spreadsheets/project tracking and use only a (gasp) notebook and pen. I take notes as I process concepts, desires goals etc. After 2 weeks, I have been astounded at what that time accomplishes.</p>
<p>So far, I have discovered that spending that hour away from the tactical has actually made the 39 hours where I AM working through the task list much more effective. I am able to view the daily tasks in a much greater context. </p>
