Exerpt from my Feb 2008 Journal:
"So I've been thinking.. Why? Why can't I get organized and stay that way? I know if someone made me do it, I can do it. I know this because I worked for my now best friend on and off for 10 years in my twenties. She is very organized, and she expects her employees to be the same. When you take something you put it back in it's place. Simple! When it's time to do something, you do it, even if you don't feel like it. Simple!
When I was living with her, and working for her, I followed those rules no problem. But only in her house and work place. My personal room was a mess. So why can I do it for others but not for me? I think it's because I was accountable to her, but I'm not accountable to myself. I go easy on myself."
At that time I proceeded to promise to put things away after using them where they belong, and to do things when they are supposed to be done, no procrastination. I have no problem with any of the above for my clients, or charity work.. only for myself. I have gotten slightly better... really... I have.
