The No Excuses Project: everyday chores

May 5, 2010

I am not a neat freak nor is that required to achieve grand things in life. But if you, like me, periodically stare at a stack of dishes that could have, should have, made it into the dishwasher the night before it’s worth considering how much time and energy goes into repeating “I need...

The No Excuses Project: Moving towards a perfect garden

I’m trying to be realistic with this one – there’s only so many projects that can fill up the available free time.  The goal of the no excuses project is  to stop putting off the possible, not how to become a superhero! While a garden is very important to me, it’s not a critical...

Letting go of what isn’t working

April 14, 2009

I was checking out other blogs this weekend and found myself relating with some chagrin to the latest post on Zen Habits, Productivity tips for people that hate GTD.  The chagrin was due to having recently re-added my tattered copy of Getting Things Done to my to-do pile because not much of it stuck...
