It is and has always been said that "a crazy person is a lad that keeps doing the same task the same way and expect different results"...I am that crazy person...when it comes to time. You would think by me skating through class by the skin of my teeth last time that I would have realized this but it seems I have not. I begin class this month and already my habits has not change when it comes to managing time. I should know better, heck, I DO KNOW BETTER and yet I keep engaging in this destructive habit to myself. I will admit (and maybe this will help me by me saying this out loud) I do not respect TIME plain and simple.

By me working the way that I do I know really do not have time to do certain things, like surfing the web because lets be honest...it seems when you are surfing the web hours seem like minutes and minutes seems like seconds. I know this but then I keep trying to do this every day which leads to not getting to work the time when I want to get there which in returns when the training rooms and conferences rooms are used means I may leave work after my schedule time. I will be honest, this falls on me. I can't blame anyone. I know we only have 24 hours in a day, I can't stop time (the only time I know when the sun stopped is when Joshua was battling his enemies and God stopped time for him and I can not think of anyone else that time stopped for although that's would be cool don't you think?). So with that said, I have to break this bad habit and NOW. This is what I need to do every day during the work/school week.

The only time I can get on the computer for me is early in the morning. During the day I don't have access to it at work and I have accepted that and when I come home not to get on the computer because I know once I'm on 15-20 minutes is not good for me. I'm a geek, I love the web and for that's like giving me one french fry or a half of a hamburger...it will not do my justice. And how do I use the computer doing the morning is to...

Take my butt to bed when I get home from the second gig. I say this all the time and really never do it. I need to hop in the shower, if I'm hungry to eat a bowl of cereal (nothing heavy). No computer/no TV...just bedtime. So what if my Karma on Plurk dips doing the week, it's just a thing of no value right? (so why I'm I so worried if it's dips below 50?) But in all seriousness, I need to manage my time and respect time. If I go to bed at a proper time, I wake up early and that time i can get my geek on. It seems that I do my best work either very early in the morning or late, late at night.

Eat a big breakfast at home. If I eat a nice big breakfast and snack on healthy food doing the day I really do not need a lunch and by only getting 30 minutes for lunch this works out for me (and what is up with these companies only giving 30 minutes?) I find for me not eating food at work (1) helps me stay away from the noisy/nosy people (2) I can spend some quiet time with myself (3) curves me from spending money. (4) I'm thinking about what I need to accomplish and not food.

In all honesty it really comes down to me. In order for me to do what I want and really need I must give up some habits that in the end that are not benefiting me right now. Watching TV...those actors already have "theirs" and I need to get mine. It is so true, "time is what you make of it" and right now I am not making good with my time...but that's goint to change. These things I need to simple and I am making what I need to do to better myself difficult. I have to make that change in order to be successful.
