I'm trying to put myself in order, get myself organized and then maybe get things finished. Several plans of attack have come to mind. One is to pile projects into some order and finish one at a time and not move onto another until I have finished that choosen project. However, what happens when classes come up and I start a project there. Another plan, is to be working on the finishing stages of one (like the binding) and be getting another one ready for its next stage either, layering the top/middle/bottom or putting the blocks together or working on the blocks to put together into a top. Of course, there is always having leaders and enders going, so, one can tell I need to make a plan and just stick to that plan.
So many of us have quite a few projects to work on that it can become overwhelming. I realize teachers have an excuse to have samples, to illustrate how to accomplish the next step and therefore, seem to have several thousand projects to finish, thats a teacher. The rest of us don't have that kind of excuse. We get caught up in the day to day stuff ( cooking, shopping, cleaning, laundry, taxing) and have to put this that and the other project aside and work on it more later. Then more stuff comes up, group taking class, group making gift for good friend, and just making something for self. So the one project started grows into 10 + projects. I have been told that it is okay to also discover that some of the started projects loose their appeal and so then, one can find someone who is wanting to finish that, because they just do.
Whatever the reason, it is a new year, I'm going to try to make a plan and try to see it through. Make a plan either choose a day or week to work on those projects and nothing else, or make a list of projects you want to finish, maybe even give yourself a deadline to motivate yourself, also get a really great friend to remind you that you need to work on that list. Don't forget to give kudos when you do work on and especially finish a project. Anyone what to join me????
