To Do

Wednesday, March 21st, 2012

So I’ve decided to try this Epic Win app for the iPhone. The first task I need to compete is to move over things I can actually accomplish. THINGS is great, but it is SUPER bloated right now with about 500 tasks to do. I spend WAY too much time organizing my list there. I want to just do stuff you know?

Goal setting and reaching

Friday, March 16th, 2012

My wonderful girlfriend patiently listened and then patiently told me that I talk a lot about goals, but don’t seem to do them. She, of course, said this delicately, but is absolutely right.

This past week (or two) I accomplished very little when it comes to my goals. I’ve either been catching up on much needed sleep or ‘relaxing’ or just plain old procrastinating. Well no more. I’m taking my goals and breaking everything down so small that I can’t but help to get things done.

I am going to take the suggestions from Jacqui and catalog what I do with my time every day for a week. Things ARE going to happen.

Child development

Thursday, March 15th, 2012

I think that children need more time to be ‘bored’. The world is fast paced, but when and how are kids supposed to absorb it?
I often see toys that indicate how much ‘Stimulation’ the lights and sounds offer. However, then the kid doesn’t get a chance to use his or her own imagination. Often times too, these same toys aren’t open ended.

When I have kids I want to make sure they know how to think, and can always find a way out of being bored.
