Sharpie is doing what always works for him: lolling in the sun
What worked for me this week were:
- Spending time with good friends
- Starting a class to learn Blackboard, a common online teaching system so that I can branch out from face-to-face instruction
- Having two article assignments that really interest me (more on those when they’re published)
- Resuming my strength-training program
- Holding off this week on resuming belly-dancing and Nia to ensure my ankle is fully healed
- Using my new Olympus VN-4100PC recorder at my interviews
What didn’t work this week were:
- Not following an eating plan to reduce calorie intake
- Getting lost on my way to an interview for an article (hint: if you are going to Chippewa Falls, Hwy 178 now runs with Seymour Cray Sr. Blvd, and the old Hwy 178 is now Commercial Parkway—Internet mapping doesn’t know this)
- Not doing any fiction writing
- Not doing any research on literary agents
- Continuing to procrastinate on tax preparation
To do this analysis for yourself, remember to begin with “what worked.” It may be hard to think of a couple, but keep going—you’ll think of something that worked, even on those days where it seemed nothing went right.
