Parkinson's law
I am a strong believer in Parkinson's law - "The work expands to fill
time available to it". So the procrastinator in me frequently takes
unfair advantage of this law to avoid doing that work till only 33% of
the original time is left. How do you decide how much time you should
spend on a task.
How do you measure the productivity of the day. How do you assign values
to 5 different tasks at hand and allocate your time so that each gets
the fair share.
How much time would you spend photographing the rainbow versus spending
an extra hour cleaning your car or an extra hour doing your work. How
and where do you pull the plug on what you are doing?
btw after a month of incessant rain, its bright and sunny today with the
perfect temperature. And I found a new radio channel www.luxuriamusic.com
The idealist in me would recommend predermining the time slots for each task.
The practical would suggest that its not wise to leave somthing unfinished if its on the verge of completetion.
The procrastinator in me will try to postpone it till one day before the deadline or till it becomes a priority.
Good stuff:)

New Year resolution
This year New Year resolution is very simple - To express myself - more & better
To this effect I would be expressing myself regularly on my blog for people like yourself. This is not going to be yet another post swearing on my regularity (see below) but it would be. Other ways would be extend out to, write in a more formal setting. The good thing about blogging is that your promises confront you in the face later, in public domain. Maybe this is a stimulant.
I started off today thinking about the ideas in my mind and wanting to blog it. After three hours of blog tweaking I am exhausted, the ideas have gone and so has my mood. So let this be the introductory entry for today.
