Time Management Tips Needed!!

During a fabulous inprompto presentation on New Media Marketing at the last San Fernando Valley For You Network meeting, Dr. J (Jaelline Jaffe, Lemon-Aid Counseling, www.LemonAidCounseling.com) made the audience realize why it is so important to be consistant to regularly communicate on Facebook and LinkedIn. She inspired me, along with all the ladies present, to ‘get going regularly.’

Now my question to you. How do you manage your time to work with Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Website, and all the other Social Media sources regularly and not feel overwhelmed or get ’stuck’ at your computer for hours on end. Anyone has any time management tips that work for them? Please share …..

Do you feel like sometimes its too much? Between blogging, tweeting, facebook, meetup, linkedin, websites, emails ..and now I added classmates! I’m reduced to cooking while checking facebook or any of the other modalities (or not cooking and waiting for my husband to get home and do that) and driving to work or metings doing while talking on the phone. How do you do it? I’m running out of time for my social networking. Sometimes I just want to go back to the ‘good old day’s’! Any advise from fellow bloggers ..
