distractions
I think I have a severe problem with time management.
For example, today my to-do list spans at least 15 different projects, ranging from simple things such as "vacuum apartment" to more long-term projects such as "design website" or "record some music". It is a list that could easily keep me busy from now until I graduate in 3 months. So, the question is, why has "vacuum apartment" been on my to-do list for at least three weeks, along with such items as "clean room" or "pick up pile of clothes off of floor?" Would it really take me that long to do? Instead, I find myself watching videos on YouTube or playing x-box or some other mindless activity that really serves no purpose other than distracting me from what I should be doing. It's almost as if I subconsciously prefer being distracted over being productive. I mean, this is probably the most productive thing I've done all day, and that is truly a misfortune.
but anyway...
I think I hear Derek calling me to play a game of Halo.
