I have an column due for BP Magazine today. All I have to do is edit it and yet you’d think I had 20 hours of work left to do. I put it off all day yesterday. I wrote my editor and said I would have it in today just to make sure I had a deadline I couldn’t miss. I woke up worried about getting it done. What is my point! It would have taken me maybe two hours to polish the article. It’s already written and looks good. It just needs a darn final edit! I’ve probably worried about it for triple the time it would have taken to do the final work.
Why do we do this! I wrote Get it Done When You’re Depressed to keep myself focused and productive! So, I’m doing the edit now and will have the column in on time!
I love BP Magazine. If you don’t have a subscription, you can visit www.bphope.com
You can read this column in the winter! It’s on dating… woo that is a tough one!
