It is really true what they say about busy people getting more done. Last week, in a fit of stress, I cancelled all my extra-curricular activities so that I could work. I've been telling everyone how busy I am. And, I am. But, am I getting anything done? No.
Here is what I attribute to my lack of productivity:
- winter burn-out. I skated this weekend, and that was nice and everything, but the blowing snow of today just made me tired and sad.
- a Spider Solitaire addiction relapse. I was off it for a while. Now I'm on it.
- a messy home. I filled out my passport application today, and had to trash my home in order to find my Certificate of Canadian Citizenship. (The passport photo people made me take off the bandages and scowl for the picture).
- read a very depressing novel called Property.
- Attention Deficit Disorder - medicated with coffee, but sometimes that's not enough.
Here is my action plan for tomorrow:
- Get up early.
- Drink coffee.
- Make a detailed to-do list.
- Do the stuff on the list.
- Delete or disable Spider Solitaire.
