week one

February 1st, 2010

This week I have three goals.

Slow down and concentrate on one thing at a time.
I love multitasking. I like to believe that I can multitask very well. In fact I find myself multitasking all the time, even when I don't really need to be. I have ample time to complete my tasks everyday, and by ample I really mean way too much. So why do I rush through my work every morning only to have hours of nothing to do at the end of the day? Who knows. I think that if I slow down and enjoy whatever I am doing at the moment, it will make me a more peaceful and level minded person. I will not run out of time, and I need to remember that a lot of times. Not only in the workplace but also while driving, while cleaning the house, and while relaxing for a few moments. This week I will slow down.

Be more positive.
Lately, I find myself making very negative comments. Usually its towards a stranger passing by, or concerning myself, but also about various others things. I have no clue where this subconscious negative energy is coming from, but I am going to stop it. This week I want to steer clear of negative comments. I will do this by consciously stopping any negative comment that I begin to say. If I am able to establish this habit I believe that I will be a happier person, and other people will find me more pleasant to be around.


Get organized and motivated for school.
I was very excited for this semester to begin, but also very unprepared. I went to my first class without paper, because I honestly didn't think to bring some. Now, two weeks into the semester I still haven't completely organized my school supplies. My goal is to have all the supplies I need for this semester in hand, organized, and in a backpack by Friday. No more putting this off. I need to stay focused on school now. If I can get this done by Friday I know that it will help me to be more prepared for all school assignments and make me feel more confident about this semester.
