Don’t get mad at me but I gave us a deadline
Oh, hi friends!
Hello, yes, hi, It’s Monday, and I’m giving us a finish line!
Noon on Wednesday. That’s it. That’s when you’ll be finished with all your major work this week, before you fly off or train off or simply disappear into a blanket fort for Thanksgiving.
Won’t it feel good to do so knowing you got through it all?
Any lingering tasks, appointments to set, phone calls to make. Do ‘em now!
Drafts you have to file, edits you have to make, ideas you should massage. Do it now!
Noon on Wednesday. (Or earlier, if that’s what you gotta do.) That’s plenty of time.
You with me? (She says desperately, imploringly.) YOU WITH ME?
Love this tweet from my friend and Brass Ringer Julie Bestry (she’s a professional organizer so I always listen to her advice on, um, everything).
Are you beating yourself up for falling behind on something? Do you think, maybe, it’s something you might not have any interest in after all? Can you declare bankruptcy on it? DO IT. FREE YOURSELF. (Gosh, I'm very shouty today, no?)
Oh, look it’s Emma Thompson and Anthony Hopkins feeling emotional feelings in the 1992 film Howards End. If you’re in the U.S., you’re about to have a few extra days which you can fill with movies and the like. Why not go for witty dramas? Or basically anything with Emma Thompson? Howards End is streaming on Netflix.
