manage my time better

I suck at managing time. I kill so much time on the internet.
Firstly ill start by waking up every morning at a certain time and plan everything ahead. I will do what needs to be done. And ill do what can be done when i have the time.

My life is ending minute by minute and I will make the most of it.

Discipline

I am just spending to much time with my ex and not enough time by myself. When I am by myself and not distracted I am very productive and have great time management.

Last week I set about making to-do lists for every day of the week. My plan is that by getting myself on a regular schedule, I will be able to manage my time easier than just doing stuff when I feel it needs done. So far, I am catching up on yesterday’s list though, thanks to being out of town for the holiday.

Hmmm another good idea for managing time/life/lists or maybe just another distraction? Ho Hum!

It’s just not funny any more. Today, I had guests for dinner and they had to wait like 20 minutes for their meal! It’s just not good, I gotta a) figure out how long things REALLY take b) plan ahead c) stick to the damn plan! I’ll try… This has been something I’ve struggled with all my life (I remember my mom complaining about it when I was a teen), so I know it’ll take time. Oh, time…

The title says it really, I am at the moment finding more things to do so as I put them off and do the other things first as procrastination activities, it works but I still take more and more time to do stuff and beat myself up for not doing the stuff on time. Its time to stop and start managing my time properly. I have started keeping a To-Do list for the week and need to start a carrot and stick approach to ticking everything off the list.

Damn facebook!

Now that I’m back in school, and the Pilgrim starts 2nd grade in a month, I really need to get a handle on this.

I’m not having problems getting the bare minimum done, but everything else? Not happening. I need to really just buckle down and get it together.

I can do this successfully; I’ve done it before.

Damn internet. I say to myself that I’ll only be on for 15 minutes and an hour has passed.
I’ve started to use a kitchen timer. When it buzzes I’m done.

This mostly requires me to stop spending so much time wasting on the internet-I did ok with this before I got internet at home and I would get rid of it except that I am taking online classes and its sort of needed since I don’t have a car to rush off to the cafe or something to use WIFI everytime I have an assignment due.
