Personal Project Management Software

Priorities and time management?

I want to do the following:

1. Sleep on time, wake up on time
2. exercise regularly.
3. Be happy – (am not very happy)
4. Do some personal work regularly like make my own projects, learn somethings, do some sketching.
5. And do my office work

All I manage to is work and more work. It never gets done enough. Our bosses make project plans. They involve us but no matter what the work never goes as per plan. I think because we are in software creation and always working on something new we will always have surprises in our work. Net result everyone is continuously slipping in their schedule. I feel like a donkey all the time. Everyone stays late and slogs a lot.

Has anyone ever successfully solved this problem. How?
Software programming is all about solving problems. Anyone ever solve this one problem?

Hmmm. Probably doesn’t just affect software workers, but I know where you’re coming from!

1a. No caffeine after lunch, no late night TV, no alcohol during the week. Go to bed at the same time every day.
1b. An alarm clock is helpful. Preferably an annoyingly loud one that doesn’t shut up that you can put on the other side of your bedroom so you can’t just turn it off, roll over and go back to sleep.
2. Walk/cycle to work (or at least the last mile or two)
3. Find a hobby that interests you, that’s not too similar to your work – and do it in the evenings/at weekends
4. Depends how you get to work. If you take a train or bus, you could fit in learning/sketching something on the way – or even during the lunch break (don’t skip lunch – and get out of the office if you can to break the monotony of sitting behind the same desk all day)
5. You’ll probably be more productive if you get regular sleep, and don’t think about work all the time by doing something non-work-related whenever possible.
