Some reasons why we procrastinate...

1. Fear of Failure.
Many people put off doing things because they are afraid of failing. If they only speak of their hopes and dreams, but make no firm effort towards achieving their goal, they cannot fail.
2. Feeling Overwhelmed.
Many times we look at a goal and feel that there is too much that needs to be done in order to accomplish it. The sense of being overwhelmed paralyzes us, preventing us from taking even the first step towards achieving our goal.
3. Human Nature.
We naturally tend to avoid that which causes us hardship or pain, and gravitate towards that which is easy or gives us pleasure. In order to avoid procrastination due to the unappealing or difficult nature of a task, commit to complete the most unpleasant jobs first.
4. Perspective.
If we view a task as being difficult, then that is exactly what it will be for us. Rather than dreading a given assignment, view it as an opportunity to excel.

I've turned into an e-geek

Happy New Year!
I have just spent 3 days trying to workout:
How to write code to produce an 'RSS feed'
Create a 'tag cloud'
In that time I have also wandered around the internet falling clumsily into many sign-ups including: Facebooking myself ;) *

I am a a self confessed:

(Monday night) Footballers wife - I missed the end of a film the other night because match of the day was on AGAIN for like the 70th time in 10 days.
An e-geek (essex girl geek....)

*I would like to add that all the above has been created of my own volition with not a single bit of assistance from Mr Zamzar.

My favourite Christmas present!

Well, we had a superb Christmas with lots of family fun and games - went to a very traditional high church Midnight Mass in Essex, which was wonderful, and gave us an insight to how odd, people who aren't used to church, must feel on attending services such as these... we had to sing communion confessions.... I just talked, means the same eh....


....SO Chris bought tickets to see the show "Wicked" - It was absolutely amazing, the music and scenery was tremendous, the most striking role was the lead character 'Elphaba' played by Idina Menzel. She was awesome her passionate acting was inspiring. I would highly recommend this.... its one for everyone: not just girls!

Favourite piece of music: 'Defying gravity'.
Review of plot
Book tickets

...Monkey socks from Grandma were pretty essential, stylish and cool too.

Monday

I often think in similies; here are some of my thoughts:

They asked her again as commandingly as Herod once did, she stood fast and knew the right decision to make.

The duvet tumbled like a determined waterfall haphazardly to the floor.

He shot forwards like a destructive bolder, not considering the young child looking on.

Their faith was as steadfast as the large Canadian redwood they felt crushed beneath.e

She dressed elega
ntly, moving as deftly as a carefree dragonfly.

The first two cups were unsatisfactory, but the third - his eyelids simply collapsed like falling silk at the joy of the perfect brew!

They listened and their response - Like a fathers embrace, told her to take action and follow her heart.

Carefully they bandaged, prayerfully they fought, it felt like another night in the wrong territory.

He came along and contributed with gusto and humility, he was like his Father.
