I'm glad some discussion came out of this!
Also:
I set goals and I meet them on a case-by-case basis. Rather, if something needs to be done that day I calculate the time it'll take to complete it and try to do so early as possible ( at least, before I fall over with exhaustion, thus ending my 'day'), not unlike someone doing dailies in WoW. The difference, especially with an schedule revolving around art, is that quality is a much bigger factor, and there's a lot more that you as a person can put into what you do as opposed to what you can do as a player doing the same task over and over again.
That's actually one of the reasons why I like Dave's old schedule: It's efficient. Something else I learned from raiding is that you must be mathmetical, i.e. you must understand human error/input. Like Vandall points out: people are very variable in nature, and planning/plotting for those times when people will be people will help you manage yourself and your time better.
Hope this helps a bit more.

do you think there're any lessons you can port over from your wow days?
