Just a note

Doing really well this week anxiety wise. Even Sunday I felt good. Now just to catch p on the sleep part.

Handling things, even when I get those little panicky or perfectionatey twinges.

Not everything needs to documented.

Lots of great projects to focus on.

Obvious Conclusion

A. Filling in my calendar with mandatory activities such as sleep, meals, and scheduled events such as work, school, meetings helps me see what time is left for other work and play.

B. Filling out one event at a time is a pain and takes a lot of time because of the way my lists are color coordinated and I am a perfectionist and want all the details to be written down rawr rawr rawr.

Therefor

C. If I schedule events to auto-repeat and then just adjust them individually as needed I will save time and remove a procrastination block. I already do this for my class schedule, why have I been copying events to be identical on 5 adjacent days, what is this madnesss!!!

I don’t know how I didn’t see this before.

Dear Google Calandar,

I am sorry to inform you that I will be using you less then we both expected. As much as I love using you and/or paper agendas to write down every little thing that happens in my life it simply can not be done. I’d rather be doing things than writing in that detail, even about all the good things that happen. We’re way past the point where every positive human interaction I have needs to be recorded, date and time and who said what, aren’t we? Whatever the answer, we will be over it now, okay? Don’t feel rejected, for you are a very useful program and I will continue to use you for time management, and to add entries when I feel like it, plus to keep track of school deadlines, events, homework etc. But the time you were taking up before is just too much, so I will be refining my usage. Journaling etc. should be something enjoyable, not stressful. So I’ll agree to let go if you do too, alright?

Love,

Kamilah

I hope one day I will be brave enough to live life without feeling the constant need to record and remember every thing which happens.

As it is I freaked out when Google Calender crashed. I fret over lost contact info and a lack of organization.

This type of stress is unnecessary but I honestly feel like the root cause is that I love life so much I don’t want to forget any of it.

Then again, maybe I’m just afraid.
