...Just gotta stop…look at the task..mentally, visually….and tell myself…’do it’. First thing is first most of the time however is,....turn off television!!!..

Maybe looking at crastination as a good thing is the problem. Perhaps the key is changing one’s outlook and taking an anticrastination stance.

Worth doing!

I guess you could say I’ve completed this. I mean, it’s not a definite goal or anything, but I’ve been multitasking a lot more recently, and successfully, I might add. I mean I still have so much to do, but I consider myself less of a procrastinator now, so why not. Goal Completed. =)

Worth doing!

I tend to spend time on 43T instead of other… possibly more work related pastimes. I’m going to call 43T time constructive, and consider this goal done! All in my head… possibly, but it works for me!

you know?!  — 1 year ago

i have this goal, but i never actively do anything to accomplish it. go figure. i don’t even know where to start! it’s just so broad and i procrastinate in everything. i need help with this one!

I sat, like a vegetable...  — 1 year ago

..at my computer for a few hours this afternoon, but I think I was pretty productive. I was ripping CDs to my hard drive, and I updated my 43things page every so often. I consider both activities to be somewhat dilatory, but combined.. I say that’s productivity..

yet another..  — 1 year ago

..afternoon of oh-so gradual progress with my course-work. I realized last night though, that time spent here isn’t wasted time. For you it’s probably just procrastination, but I happen to be studying Psychology, so it’s ok. I actually do find a lot of inspiration on 43things, and SusieQ agreed with me, so there.

progress..  — 1 year ago

..sort of. I stayed home tonight (Saturday night) with the intention of working on a research project i’m doing for my degree, but I ended up taking a ‘43things break’ about every half-hour. Now it’s after midnight, and what I could have completed in three hours, is still not finished. I did get a lot done though, so I guess in a way I did procrastinate constructively. Come to think of it, as a psychologist i’m always trying to understand people better, so I guess there is an inherent value to the time I spend at 43things. Seriously… I swear i’m not rationalizing.. am I?
