All good stuff. But the trick for me is I have learned to give each item on the list a grade. A. A got to do it. B. Try to get it done after the A's. C. If you can put it off for a while, it may go away. D. These may disappear into the to ethers or may have to be upgraded later. Ignore for now. The big problem we all have is we do the EASY things first because there is satifaction in CROSSING THEM OFF THE LIST. I wrote a silly post about my sister June called Procrastination and Chocolate Cake. It gave her a big laugh because it is a true family story. You might enjoy it because you do it too. http://www.personal-growth-with-corinne-edwards.com/procrastination-and-chocolate-cake/ Thanks for the wake up calls, Christine!

You really hit it on the nail with this "attention splatter." Wow. I know exactly what you mean. I'm a self employed professional speaker and work out of my home. It's incredibly easy to let my attention wander since I spend so much time on the computer. I'll see an interesting post (like yours) and one thing leads to another. And nothing meaningful gets done! Thanks for making me aware of this. "Attention Splatter"! I love it. :) By the way, your writing is so smooth, almost effortless. I would be very interested in your take on how you overcame adversity. I'm conducting an interactive experiment at "Adversity University" where I've been inviting people here and there to participate. If you click on the link to my name, it'll take you to the post containing instructions. I hope you feel inspired to participate! Stephen Hopson Christine:
