#367 – First Week of School

Posted by Beardo on Jan 26, 2012 in Blog | 0 comments

Just completed the first week of school.

And I made the same promise to myself – I will do assignments as they come. I will not lag behind.

And just like every semester, I fail to do that within the first few days. But my goal is to catch up this weekend. Starting right now. It’s still early in the semester, anyway. The time is always now. If you ever want to do something good, you can’t plan it for a later time, because 99% of the time, you will never get around doing it.

And then there are those times when you see the mountain of work, you avoid it all together – but that doesn’t make things better. It actually just makes the pile bigger and bigger. But when that happens, you have to re-assess – lessen your commitments.

Which is what I actually did this semester. I resigned as the president of the political science club. Sometimes there’s a limit to how much you can put on your plate. I still believe there is time for everything, but it requires an advanced level of time management. I simply do not have that at the moment – still working on it.

But Alhamdulillah, one commitment I have been able to fulfill was this blog… Not sure if you guys noticed, but it has been one year of daily blogging! Alhamdulillah!
