Andrea Perry ‘Isn’t it about time?’ a book about procrastination and why we waste time, put our life on hold etc….it was recommended to me and strangly enough, they day i picked it up i stop wasting time and started DOING!!! maybe it was just having the book as a conscious effort to get on with life that made it happen or maybe it was what was written, but either way, i’m only stopping when i truely need a break!!!
has anybody else come across this book?

I was at uni for 3 years and started in debt because I lost my job 6 weeks before starting and couldnt get another one due to my small town…. i was forced out of home that year too so i was having to pay bills…
despite working through Uni as much as my health would let me, I only managed to get a part-time job which didnt pay well, i was moving twice in 3 months and because there were no cheap places to live, i had to get a loan from the bank….so i’m in debt!!
i’m in a 30hour job now and looking for a better job so hopefully i can start paying things off more soon, but at the moment, i’m just breaking even each month…
i’m missing out on things because i cant afford to do anything – i couldnt afford to go back to see my family and home friends at christmas, i’m spending little on food – not all the fresh fruit and veg that i’m used to having (though i’m enjoying the challenge of ‘how many days can i feed myslef on �2?’ :P)... i’m getting desperate for clothes as most of my trousers are falling apart, having to use other people’s tooth paste cuz i’ve run out and cant get any more until payday – urgh!!! it’s just annoying! i’ve been financially struggling for years and it’s just be nice to see the light at the end of that rather long tunnel.
I enjoy working, i’d work more hours but I have health problems so I cant do 40 hour weeks…
i will get that job i want
i will be on a better wage
i will be on more hours
and in a few months i’ll have paid off my immediate debts
and i’ll have started saving :)
i will do this and i will be proud of myself
