arranging time

So, I've been faced with the delema of not getting done what I should. Namely projects that I should be working on, say to people I will do it. Well, I figured out a way, make a schedule. I think this will work because it gives me a timeline and goals rather than everything at me all at once. I wrote an interesting bit about it in my journal a couple days ago.
"There's a lot I should get done, but don't because it seems like theres so much as a whole to do. But if its in smaller pieces with a strategy, theres more possibility for follow through.
Let see, what should I do... Will for one lets factor working out into the mix. Then theres design projects. I need to get a solid new portfolio together. That means alot. Fill in to marrow. Design- I want to do new projects, help Jozef out, car and pin stripping stuff/band posters. Fine art- I want to find what my own voice is now, what its become. I want to make great art with my hands in ways I never have, textures, collage, illustrate more draw instead of read on the bus). Help my creative spirit grow.
Theres a certain stagnation to life right now. If your not moving forward then you become stagnant and erode.
Also I want to play the trumpet and harmonica more. Also I want to keep learning and discovering. I think theres a certain something about self propelled searching and discovery, learning new things, as this will also help in other areas previously noted.
I don't want to be in the same position I am this time next year. Theres a fire in me. I just have to make sure the fuel gets to the wheels instead of wasted warming the seats. Like Less Than Jake said, going nowhere is like giving up. "
So I figured out all the projects and leaning/growing IO want to do, and made a weekly schedule for projects. It mixes it up so I don't get stuck or frustrated working on one thing constantly. Plus Ill get more done:)
Well, this sat is my bday party. lets hope it goes well.
