Just do it....Get it done....NOW!
I've changed my strategy about a few things. It used to be, when I had something to do, I'd put it off until I HAD to do it. That creates rushing, broken commitments, stress, and failure. So I'm changing a few things. I used to take my medicine last thing at night...now I take it first thing in the morning...while my water is still on my night stand and the pills are right there....before I get dressed (one of my medicines is a gel I have to rub in). I find that if I keep my planner there, I can just grab it and use it right away...what am I doing? I'm getting these things DONE! as in, off the list...finished worrying about them...no chance of failure.
Procrastination...putting things off...has been a major obstacle for me my whole life. Any more, I'm just trying to get things crossed off the proverbial "to do" list. The principle is simple...at any given point during the day, the fewer things I still have to do, the less chance I'm going to overlook something, run out of time, or have something else get in the way.
You'd think I would have learned some of these things well before being in my forties...but oh, well---I'm not old yet, and it's exciting to make positive changes.
