Favorite Quotes:

"How am I prioritizing my time?"

"People are often surprised by the number of things I don't do."

I think Grahl was delightfully unapologetic in his approach to debunking "too busy". It's one of those subjects that will not be grasped if sugar-coated.

Favorite Quotes:

"Identify the first step."

"Yeah, good idea, but... no."

I have had the "Yeah, good idea, but... no." way too often. This mostly applies to computer engineering courses that are highly abstract as the article insinuated. 

I've been trying to tackle this class so far by doing a blog every time I have an hour to spare. This has helped me stay on-task with all the other beginning of the semester things going on. I imagine since this has worked so far, I will try it for next week. It will be nice to have this week out of the way before this evening. It feels good to get something done as the "How to Beat Procrastination" article mentions.
