Multitasking

 I am not a very good multitasker. I never have been.  When have to many things going on at one time, I never seem to get them accomplished.  And if I do, then they are not up to the level that they should be if was focused on only one thing at a time. That is one of the things that makes trying to balance home life with school difficult for me.  I have a lot of things I need to get done around the house each week while at the same time I have a lot of schoolwork to get done as well. I know that I can get lots of things accomplished if I put my mind to it. I just need to find a system that works better for me.  

I make a daily list of things to get done around the house.  I'm thinking that I need to start doing the same thing with my schoolwork.  Map things out and get them checked off one by one instead doing a little here and a little there. I believe that will motivate me more to reach the goals I want to.  I really do wish that I was one of the helicopter people with octopus arms that could do a thousand things at the same time but alas, I am not.  Not even close. Tonight, I am doing laundry.  I have schoolwork that I need to be doing as well but I cannot focus while I've got laundry going.  Yes, it sounds weird, but it is what it is.

Everything will get done.  I will see to that. It just may take longer than I hoped but the end products will be what I want them to be.  That is all.
