what is the opposite word for procrastination? that is my word for this year.
i've never been one for resolutions. i think it has something to do with wanting to be spontaneous but maybe it has more to do with commitment.
but lately, i see, or can imagine, the benefit of having goals and writing them down. (check
this out for some statistics on goal setting)
i knew that january would be a busy month - finding colleges for both sons and then applications and financial aid forms are the biggies. i just found out that one of the schools has an additional financial aid form - the dreaded css form. the one where they want to know everything including what kind of toilet paper you use and how many pennies are stuck between the couch cushions. and if you could see the state of my paperwork you'd understand why i'm quaking in my boots. the result of, you guessed it, procrastination.
some synonyms for procrastination from the thesaurus:
delay
hinder
impede
prolong
stall
dilly-dally
let slide
lazy
i'm not liking the sound of these words.
so, along with remembering to breathe, i am going to banish procrastination from my kingdom.
now i just have to figure out how to do that. :)
anyone have any ideas? does it start with being organized?
that might have to be another word for this year.
oh but where to start?
in theory, here's some lovely things that would surely help me get organized.
so this weekend i will finish up those dreaded financial aid forms, get some orders ready for my shop, help my son paint his room, make sure everything is in for college applications and breathe.
what are you doing this weekend? something fun?
