As Nike says: Just Do It!

Hi there,

I'm pretty sure I mentioned to you that I am the Queen of Procrastination! Yes, I am and most of the time I'm darn proud of it. Notice I said most of the time.

Today I had to buckle down and really work on a project I just kept pushing out. Well I agreed to have a good chunk of this project completed by this Thursday, 10/30. So I really had to make sure I did it.

I have to admit that once I got started it was easy to lose track of time enjoying the work, but truly that is because I had everything organized. I just needed to start writing. You would think by now with all these blogs (that I am just having a ball writing) under my belt that I wouldn't get the jitters. However, I'm human and I have this little "gremlin" on my shoulder that keeps shouting, "who every told you you could write worth beans!"

The short version of the long story is my project is close to completion. In fact I'm on such a roll that I anticipate finishing up the whole kit-n-kaboodle by the end of this weekend.

You know, now that I think about that - it really feels good to say it! I am looking forward to having the time to think about something else for a change.

So if you ever feel that you are just spinning your wheels getting nowhere fast think about this. The joy and exhilaration you will experience once your project is done is fantastic, something to look forward to.

Cheers,
Coach Linda B
