One Day - No Progress

Happy Friday!
It's amazing to me that I went through Thursday without doing a damn thing on my To Do List.
Actually - it doesn't amaze me at all.
I'm rather used to this.

Quick update is that I spent a little time late on Wednesday handling the task list items,
but I still wouldn't consider it anywhere near done.

Here's what I've learned so far:
Blocking out time is a good idea (I blocked out two hours on Wednesday)
BUT...
It's NOT ENOUGH.
Blocking out the time still allows me to be UNFOCUSED.

NEXT IDEA:
I've got a ONE HOUR BLOCK TODAY that's available for the TO DO LIST.
Here's what I'm going to try.
Block out the hour AND set a timer to go off every five minutes.
Whenever the timer goes off I'll make sure that I'm in the task of CLEANING THE TO DO LIST.
And NOT - DOING things on the TO DO LIST.

I'll report back later how this one goes.
