the only thing worth noting about today was that i made a weekly sheet to note activities i have done. previously i had tried allocating time for activities but i just can't stick to a schedule. 30 minutes of this and 30 minutes of that daily just doesn't work for me. i can plan it but i will never execute it. now i can write things down and judge it. if i do some reading, i can mark that i did reading and for how long. that sort of thing. then i can take a look at the week and see what i need to work on or maybe just look at the past few days. the only thing i have to do is use it! this is either 'brilliant!' or 'what a geek!'. i'll also feel guilt for not doing something on the list and then be obligated to do something productive. for example, tonight was the night i did not study spanish so i better study tomorrow night. if you don't use it you lose it.
