I bounce between person 1 and 2 which is probably terrible. I burn myself out on being person 2 for a few weeks, then I am like a vegetable for a few days. Moderation is key and scheduling every minute of your day is annoying and unrealistic! Yes good point. I bounce between person 1 and 2 which is probably terrible.

Person 2 is stretched. I know this because sometimes I am person 2. The problem is that you spend a lot time doing a whole lto of nothing! And yes- IT policies at companies are extremley strict. I even know a few people who have been fired for IMing at work/internet use. So in conculsion, yes, a mixture of person 1 and 2 is probably ideal! Tania- I agree. Person 2 is stretched.

On person 2- that schedule was inspired by Gary Vaynerchuk's book CRUSH IT! and a bit of my own life. There is obviously no right or wrong way to manage your time, it just depends on what your five year plan is and what your career goals are. I too am a social media addict. This is partially because I'm trying to position myself in order to grow my own business. Spending so much time on social media can be great, but it it can become like a treadmill to no where if you don't focus! Hey Jill, I recently started following you on Twitter!

Some of the more casual people I know on Twitter have called me "a full-timer" lately. Glad to know the prognosis of being a full-timer is good! When I first saw this, I thought, oh no, I’m Person 2!

It seems as if person 2 may not actually be doing anything 100% but rather just getting stretched extremely thin and sleep deprived. Also, checking the internet continually at work will get you fired in many places... and it's kind of dishonest given that they're paying you for your time, unless it's on your lunch break. I think there's a successful medium between these two scenarios. I am not sure I agree with this.
