Hazyjane check-in Monday 5th January
I've got to finish my assignment today, it has to happen, I can't delay any longer, or mess about... I seem to have some sort of congenital issue with finishing things as close to the deadline as possible, but i hate it, it's really making me unhappy (and I want to turn it around!!! Help me HP!!!!)
Also have the dentist at 11 am. So, get up, morning routine, walk dogs, library, dentist, library. Be dogged, be determined, be focused and FINISH!!!!
And then start the next one(s) without further delay.

I have to eat the frog!!!! Am writing this at 5am because I got woken up, I thought I'd work for a bit but my resistance is enormous and it's so painful!!! However, I really have nowhere else to go with this. Painful and difficult though it is, I know I can do enough, and perseverance is the key. So, back to sleep, and when I get up in a few hours, zero tolerance for distraction (I say this but do I mean it???)...

It's 3.30 pm, I am finally settling down to work. Essay time, get some thing written down. Get started. It's going to be ok, I will be ok, regardless. Positive self-talk!!!!
Do I have a plan? Well, maybe some free writing first on paper to get my ideas somewhat clarified. Use the chatbox and bursts. DO NOT GO ON WORDFEUD!!!!
Not never, just while I'm here, put the phone on flight mode.
Ok, ready, almost...

December 27, 2014 - Chatty
Okay, I learned a lot from yesterday's to do list. I honestly worked it from the minute I woke up until 7 p.m., when I quit due to 1) fatigue 2) I was just out of time 3) the remainder of the tasks were not possible for one reason or another (vacuum literally broke while I was using it and by the time I finished taking my son shopping and cooking dinner, it was 7 and freezing outside - not the environment for training). So, I put too many tasks on the list and did not use my time wisely. Could have trained in the morning and did the clothes at night (this way, weather would not have become a factor). There were 2 tasks on there (contact C & N) that could have been done while multitasking. I felt a dread whenever the oppt presented itself and realized that I must not really want to contact C & N and that it is more of a self-imposed arbitrary obligation that I don't want to do.

Hazyjane check-in Saturday 27th December
I'm back in my friend's flat to work (he's away, the idea is the solitude will help me focus...), am reading a book, not entirely unrelated to my essay but it'll probably take me all day to read it, and it might not be the most effective use of my time... However, that's what I appear to be doing...
I will also try and find more material on the two productions I plan to use as case studies, see if it's possible to watch videos of them online.
My friend invited me out tonight, I think I ought to go, because fun is also needed, but am so anxious about the work I need to get done that I might say I can't go. Which really should give me an incentive to get something done!!!! Then I could go out as a reward...
