I have to confess a small sin.. I have been soooo lazy the past few days, I have been postponing stuff that needs to be done, laying around, watching TV (I mean for hours.. stuff that's not even interesting, ending up with a headache at the end of the day). It’s ridiculous!
Somehow I stumbled upon a newspaper clipping related to people who never tend to get things done (why, how to overcome..) And the thing that really resonated was that people who tend to take upon themselves too many things become overwhelmed by their own list of to do’s which results in them giving up. And this is so true for me. Somewhere in my mind I have this idea that I should go to the gym, take a sewing class, do some reading, clean the house, cook for the rest of the week, do my paperwork, plan my vacation, save money.. eventually I don't do anything.
SO
Today I cleaned the most important things at home and did my paperwork. And my next thing will be enrolling in some gym. And that’s it! I am not doing any other unnecessary thinking or planning or wishing.

Whenever I'd go through such days, I'd always feel crappy about myself. I'd think to myself that I'm the only lazy bum out there. I like finding out I'm not.
If you've read First Things First, you'd understand that days like such are a result of living out of quadrant II and III. Basically either doing things that are Urgent and Important, or Urgent and not Important. You burn out and then bum around in Quadrant IV, Not-Important and Not-Urgent.
It still find it fascinating to know that others go through what I'd sometimes go through. I like sharing odd expereinces. [This is also one reason why I don't own a TV anymore]
