A head full of must dos


This is going to get a little more interesting.


I figured it out- I don't really finish anything. I'm not sure what holds me back, I don't have kids or a big job. Even though school is busy I still have time to do the things that I want to do.


So I'm going to just make myself accountable. I'm going to make a list of all of the things that I want to do and at the end I will reward myself with the simple pleasure of knowing that I was "fufilled" and that I completed something. I will go through each catagory on the list one iten at a time. I guess I need a deadline... six months? If I have someone suggest something that would be interesting to me, I will add it to the list.
