Pay NO attn to the Man behind the Curtain!



I have realized over the years...
If something is written down


~In a list
~On a Calendar
~Posted on the Fridge
~Within a letter to a friend

...........I tend to get it done!

There is no room for
~Excuses
~Procrastination
~Sudden discoveries of 'more' impt tasks that 'must' get done....

so....without further delay

Dissertation Deadlines DrM2B is Pushing Towards

~Draft of Chapters One & Three - August 14 2006

**& of course these dates could all change at the behest of my Committee Chair, but by doing this, I have lit the preverbial fire under my ass!**

I'm not paying any attention to any man behind any curtain, I promise....

Now what's up with the Dissertation, I'm a bit behind and a bit lost, but what's new? I guess I better get to reading huh?

I toatally agree with the whole written thing: A list, a calendar, the fridge, a friend, sounds like a party to me and what a better place to make things happen or get things ...I am the king of procrastination but I don't make excuses but some things are just more important than others, right? I thought so...!!!!

Now about that preverbial fire....?

Later M.....

Go for it, DrM2B! If your dissertation is about the strange behavior of bloggers, you've probably got the research all wrapped up!
