Among my many faults is trying to squeeze way too many things into one day. I'm sure it's why I'm perpetually late to things, even when I try especially hard to be early.
The thing is, I never actually do or attempt to do all the things I put on my mental list. I usually make it through one or two things and then opt to do something mindless, like check my Twitter account 10 times in a row or play Guitar Hero on the Wii. By the end of the day, I haven't accomplished half of the things I wanted to and end up feeling like FAIL as I go to bed.
I'm trying to take some of the tips in this Real Simple story to heart. It's written more for people who feel like they have no free time and want more, but I think it's very applicable to someone like me, who needs to learn how to budget her time more appropriately.

No TV is my favorite of all that advice. I get so much more done when I'm not trying to fit my life into the programming schedule day.
Oh, I totally feel the same way - I stack the to do list and then totally zone out.
I'm the same way. Normally I'm not a procrastinator but I can get very easily sidetracked by Twitter and checking my e-maiol way too many times. It's a sickness.
