6 Reasons Self-Discipline Tops Innovation

Written by Donna Lehman
Morning. Early. Coffee. Feed pets, including 'wheeking' guinea pig (who knew they could be so bossy??) Multi-task: watch news, read email-blogs-RSS feeds, check Huffington Post for entertainment and politics.

Then to work - much of which involves similar activities: Reading, analyzing, decision-making, responding. Interacting, commenting, Tweeting, posting on LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.

And when you are a marketing services provider who (most likely) manages the blogs, Facebook pages, websites and Twitter accounts of your clients - that can involve a good part of the morning. Or evening. Not to mention 'feeding yourself'. What I've found is that it takes an incredible amount of self-discpline to keep on task and not get distracted, particularly if it's for my own MarketUP business.
