A7: 1/9 I prefer not to work on any project for longer than an hour at a time. So if it’s scheduled for 2.5 hours that day, I put 3 checkboxes on to-do list with (30) above the third one. If no other editing projects that day, then I do nonbillable tasks in between each checkbox. #ACESChat

A7: 2/9 I won’t edit longer for 2.5 hours in a row. So if project A is 2.5 hours that day and project B is 1.5, then I have three checkboxes for A and two for B. Project A (1 hour), Project B (1 hour), Project A (30) min, nonbillable, Project B (30 min), Project A (1 hour), nonbillable. #ACESChat

A7: 3/9 Or it might look like Project A (1 hour), Project B (1 hour), nonbillable, Project C (1 hour), Project A (1 hour), nonbillable, Project C (30 min). It’s just never more than one hour on a given project and never more than 2.5 hours editing before a nonbillable. #ACESChat

A7: 4/9 Some gurus say stay on one task type (editing), then move to another task type (nonbillable) and don’t toggle back and forth. I used to do editing, nonbillable, editing, nonbillable, etc. But I did lose time overall because the time it took to switch between them. #ACESChat
