![]() Thanks very much for the...Submitted by Natasha (not verified) on October 10, 2006 - 3:51pm.
Thanks very much for the 'cast, it was quite cool. I however, seem to have a much more extreme case of procrastination...I have a solid GTD system in place, I capture everything, I get things done, and I forget a lot less than I used to. Furthermore, when it comes to getting the things done that I need to get done, I know very well what sort of order I need to get things done in, however, as a student, it's my school work that always needs to come first, as it has stringent deadlines, and even if I know it needs to be done, I have the tools, and it could be said I have the energy (for sitting and reading, and possibly writing) I hit this brick wall of inertia. I plain don't want to hunker down and do school work, I procrastinate, and most often, things get done at the last minute, but things like my hobbies, art and housework stay consistently done. David makes a joke about this, but it is achingly true for me. I really just wonder if any of you have suggestions for this sort of inertia that hits when you have a task to do, no real others to speak of, and you simply put it off for no good reason. Is it a problem with my brain or do others experience this? » POSTED IN:
