Juggling my Wide Range of Interests

So lately I find myself interested in:
  • photography
  • journalism ethics
  • applying Objectivism to everyday life
  • decorating (mostly in terms of my amazing, hip, nonexistent apartment)
  • blogging
  • Montessori method of education
  • homeschooling
  • Positive Discipline
  • American Sign Language
  • making money (as a waitress, photographer, and scholarships)
  • dance and choreography
  • musicals
  • colorguard
  • cinema
  • reading
I would say I have a healthy and well rounded range of interests. But finding time for all of them is hard. I'm trying to work on time management and what Craig Biddle calls "integrating values". So far I've done pretty good combining ASL and photography by taking photos at Deaf events. Actually, many of my values mesh well with photography, since a camera is kind of like a VIP pass. But sometimes I want to put the camera down and be all in on what I'm doing, like reading or dancing. I can't add more hours in the day, and I do need to sleep, eat, and shower on a regular basis. So I must prioritize my values and then arrange my schedule accordingly. Anybody know of any good books or articles on the subject?
