Friday Link Love 6/4

Jun 04 2010

I’ll confess that I tend to procrastinate. I’ve gotten a lot better over the years, but it’s something I still struggle with. I’ve tried all kinds of lists and anti-procrastinating “techniques” to no avail. However, I am finding one thing that works. Instead of creating list of stuff I need to do, I create a list of accomplishments already done.

To-do lists can be intimidating and at times make getting anything done seem impossible. By creating a list of daily accomplishments, it gives a sense of satisfaction and productivity. This is a bigger motivator than staring at a large to-do list wondering where to start. Just food for thought for all you procrastinators out there.

This week has been a little more hectic than usual, so I apologize for the slim pickings of links. That said, have a happy and safe weekend
