for thirty days, practice Eat That Frog in order to overcome procrastination!

12/6: I actually did this today…I promised myself if I made a phone call I’d been dreading, then I could relax some before I did other work. But once I did it, all of a sudden I didn’t want to relax anymore…I was invigorated! So I’m putting this goal on the list to make sure it happens regularly.
12/7: Today I mailed a package that had been on my to-do list for a week.
12/8: Today’s dreaded task was an already scheduled rehearsal, so I had no excuse.
12/9: Another Phone Call Bites the Dust.

Eat that frog is quite hard to implement in my job, I just don’t have long stretches of time. My time is often broken up into small irregular segments and anything can crop up at any moment and will require my immediate attention. I often have ten deadlines at any one time, something will crop up and be due tomorrow. It kinda makes me feel crazy sometimes, that I have so many things to remember and follow up on and do and create.

My frog is broken.
This is harder than I thought it would be, holidays make work and chores so much more difficult to set your mind to.

Ok, this morning today My frog is work.
Time to do some work :-(

I have just got back after a holiday, so I must implement this again.

I will start tomorrow :-)

I noticed when I don’t do this, I don’t feel very good about myself. So I am aiming to do this 90% of the time, and if I mess up 10% of the time, I don’t beat myself up cause I don’t have to be perfect. So 3 days out of the month, is okay.

One day I might like this enough to do more.

I like frogs.

I am starting to do this, but its hard to do.

is always hoppin’ around now. Messing up my goofing off.

I am still sick and just want to watch TV and surf the net. But I must study at least one, preferably two, chapters, and the guilt is just freaking me out…Je is at work, so I’m here alone with just myself to account for myself. Except for the big croaking frog in the middle of the living room…

...mmmm frog for dinner. Time to get back to studying.
