Taking Stock
Sorry I haven’t written in a while. We have had quite a lot of chaos in our household lately and it has been a struggle each day to do everything that needs to be done, let alone work on things I’d like to do. I have so many projects both new and old that seem to be in indefinite holding patterns. As soon as a think about picking up a project again my thoughts starts to race with all of the work to be done and I immediately become overwhelmed feeling that I won’t be able to accomplish even the simplest task. I just don’t want to give up, go through the motions and become bored and apathetic like little Neville. 
To that end, I am going assess the various projects and decide which one(s) has the best chance of being completed and still has potential to impact my life or somebody else’s. Then I am going to break up the project into small tasks and set some reasonable goals. I am also going to have to change some of my habits in order to reach my goals, i.e. wake up earlier.
I know that this is not terribly interesting to you but I’m finding it cathartic to write down my thoughts. I think I will be better accountable to myself if I actually write down my goals and post them for all the world to see. Once I set my goals I will post them here and periodically post updates about my progress.
How do you manage your goals and your time? How do you balance the things that need to be done vs. what you want to work on? How do you get things done? Leave a comment and let me know. I would love to hear from you.
