the shallow side

Bringing it all together

I’m starting to feel like I’m doing too much, and too many different things.  I’m not able to focus on the things I want to do, because there are always other little things I want to do.  Not to mention, I’m, lazy as hell.  I don’t like being busy.  I have two jobs, two things to do for school, two types of exercise, as well as yoga, which I rarely do anymore and I want to add in belly-dancing with Tania. 

 

It feels as though I do everything very shallowly.  And if I am not doing things with any depth, what’s the point?  Or, is this just start of the year wanking, dissatisfaction with the fact that I’m still in the same place I was last year?  I’m still out of shape, I’m still working on my thesis… really, nothing has changed, except my adviser and topic.  I know that I need to focus, make goals and start completing things in a timely manner.

 

The most important things to me right now are getting in shape and finishing my thesis.  I want to lose 30 lbs and finish my thesis before the spring.  I think my plan for that is: second chapter in at the end of Feb, third chapter by the end of April, conclusion in May and defended by the end of the summer, and life goes on.  As for the weight… I want to do a ½ marathon in July, and if I am losing 5 lbs a month, I will be done by then.  So, now it is just a question of putting this plan into smaller, bite-sized chunks and getting them both done. 

 

I’ll sit down after work tonight and figure out how to finish my chapters in two months and lose 5 lbs a month.  I know it is do-able, it’s just a question of doing when there are such wonderful videogames out there…
