Making Time
[ 30 December 2006 | 5:38 | by Jason ]
It has been a number of weeks since my last post, and the main reason behind that is that I have not had the time to write. Between the insanity surrounding the year-end holiday season, work commitments revolving around proposal writing and attending oral presentations, and several projects in and around the house, I simply ran out of time to write. Or, as my wife would more correctly point out, I failed to “make” time to write.
This concept of “making time” was foreign to me, I must admit, until my wife introduced it to me shortly after we started dating. Up until that point, I ran through life being a slave of time and often not being able to get things done because I “ran out of time.”
Since adopting her “make time” philosophy, I have to admit that I feel much more control over my life. As an added bonus, I am now able to spend more time being productive as opposed to “wasting” time. It is a great feeling to no longer be a victim of time and to instead take charge of my schedule.
This also fits very well with the whole Getting Things Done (or, as I like to say, Getting “Stuff” Done) work/life management system. I plan on writing more in the future about how I have implemented GTD in my life.
For now, I will just say that I am going to work hard to make time for this blog. I may not post every week, but I will continue to post.
