Amy don't waste a day
I’m moving to Washington, DC this summer, and I’m going to graduate school in the fall. I’m also going on a trip in a few weeks. These all pose deadlines that aren’t entirely arbitrary (in other words, it may be necessary to abandon or give much less attention to some goals, or some parts of goals, following these dates).
Moreover, some things on my list have to be completed before I can begin other goals (stored in my head or on the “given up” list), either because they’re prerequisites or because I have only so much time and energy, and to be effective must not disperse it too widely.
One more thing… I implore you, Robots, to add this option to each goal—some sort of progress-tracker, or way to note a deadline. (By the way, the emails-to-self are on the right track—thank you.)
