I didn’t even know Jeremy’s name (let alone how to spell it, considering that the name usually ends in an “i&# where I live.). A potential client called me over a year ago because he wasn’t getting the results he needed from his website. Only, he wasn’t selling.

There’s a fire to put out – you can’t just let it burn! In 95% of all rush cases, people sound urgent but almost all of them won’t blow at you when you say you can’t get to it right away. They can wait, or they can go elsewhere, but they sure can’t be mad at you for being helpful and willing.

And it’s sweet because now I get to discuss my ultimate, favorite topic: T, for Time-based, which has a great deal to do with project management. They aren’t projects. To accomplish the ‘T’ in SMART for project management, you have to use the S-M-A-R in the SMART acronym that we’ve already discussed.

Combine that with a T-shirt from Woot.com that I love called Procrastinate. Don’t the internet borg depend on people wasting a good portion of their lives away in order to assimilate their dollars and blog comments and retweets and so forth? Okay, do that first.” It’s official, you guys: I have been assimilated into the Borg.

In the last two months I started a consulting project (quite a big one, it will end in March next year) where I have to spend a few hours every day in an office, evaluating progress of a team, provisioning, negotiating deals, creating and implementing strategies and so on. That was a very uncomfortable place for me to be.

Well, I like to think I invented it (didn’t find it in a dictionary anyway). And it literally means: “without a script” (yeah, right). Beyond this rather light introduction there’s a far more serious theme for this article, and, at least for me, a far more important challenge: how to avoid playing roles in our lives? Yeah, this is serious stuff.

And it does that by constantly monitoring the incoming flow of planes, the available departure lanes, the weather, the remote airports availability, the flight schedule and maybe a thousand of other parameters. Imagine what happens if this control tower fails at some point. Plane crashes. Colliding sensations.

You don’t get to be on big-name sites like Men with Pens, Copyblogger, Problogger and Daily Writing Tips by fluffing deadlines like some flaky moonlighter. You just want to curl up under the duvet and pretend that deadline doesn’t exist at all. Don’t turn your back. And Ali Luke (yes, she’s back!)

Plus, complaining about pay in a situation where you typically negotiate your own pay is a bit tacky. Don’t have any client work or projects? If you decide that one of your ideal clients isn’t worth your time, don’t flatter him just to get the work. Every freelancer I’ve ever met started at the bottom of the barrel.

It’d be nice to have a website, but I don’t really need one. I’m not here to push people into doing something they don’t want to do or don’t need to do. That wasn’t the case here. But he didn’t have the right motivation to make the decision to get online. Having a website?

Maybe you think you’re a brilliant negotiator, but that may be just an inconsistent cloud in your ego. The assets I already owned combined with the value of the transaction put me in the position to be evaluated at over 1 million dollars. Being a millionaire, who doesn’t want to be that? Because that’s the spot where you’re going to invest.

It implements every single concept of this framework, bringing to life a completely new approach towards productivity. One thing that you may not know, though, is that 2 months ago I had no idea about how to write an iPhone app. I didn’t know Objective C at all, although I do know a few other programming languages, like PHP, Java or JavaScript.
