definitely should just let this puppy die...
...but i won't!
Others have brought their flailing blogs bag from the valley of the shadow of death, so why shouldn't I?
"This week's trend" is self-discipline...
-trying to actually do some study during the day - what I subconsciously, but dangerously, tend to think of as 'free time' simply because I don't have classes, especially this week when I don't have classes at all. Today, apart from a 20km bike ride (to Tim's work with him this morning and home again -with a head wind!), doing a couple of loads of washing (upon our return from an Easter weekend camping trip), a load of dishes, and having a half hour nap, I reckon all up I managed to do about 1.5 - 2 hours of actual study. Mainly constituting reading my text book and taking some notes. It's progress alright!
-letting my husband bully me about getting enough exercise and eating well. I'm hopeless unless there's someone to keep me accountable and crack the whip (this morning's ridiculous endeavour was his first stroke). I'm grateful, but sore.
-doing the prep for my ESL class tonight, instead of right before class tomorrow morning (which of course explains why I'm blogging -- after almost a year of not touching this thing! duh). I'm getting there...
-planning to set aside one day, or even half a day, to fast from food and internet and focus my mind on God; reading His Word and spending time with Him in prayer. The latter two I'm not disciplined enough to do as often as I want to/should, the former two I'm not disciplined enough to avoid as much as I should!
Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to work I go... (or another form of procrasination)
If anyone has any real, practical ideas for beating the deadly curse of procrastination, do tell.
Ciao.
