If you see me on DGN...

[Fierce Critter]

...please reprimand me.

I'm having major motivation problems again. Not the depression that had me in it's debilitating grip a couple years ago. But just a major discipline problem in getting the work done around the house I need to. Particularly my eBay sales - the only thing that's gonna get us home to Michigan before summer's end.

I'm resorting to sitting here on DGN all day while my poor husband stands on his feet all day earning an honest living. How fucking inconsiderate.

So, new rule. No DGN after 1:00 EST, and no back-on until the evening.

With that, see ya!

By flame what do you mean?

Get to work Critter!

heh. Actually I didn't look to see if you are on.

Something that helps me is visualizing my goal. Think how good it will be to be back and imagine you are right where you want to be. (right now my goal is getting the rest of the downpayment to buy a small house and to get my teeth fixed).

Also it helps me to promise myself I'll work an hour and then take a 5 minute break, set a timer (my timer is my BEST friend when working). When the timer rings, back to work.

Some days I only can work for 15 min. at a time before a short break, if I'm having a migraine or otherwise feeling poorly. but the timer helps me even then. Ever hear of the flylady? I love that goofy woman. Her concepts have helped me a lot. "You can do anything for 15 minutes" as she would say.

Ok, now to practice what I preach! Signing off DGN to get my self to work!

PM spam her is the best way. It shows up huge at the top of the board no matter where she goes. =)

I know exactly what you mean critter. Im not in that place anymore but i've been there many times. I'd be glad to help give ya a nudge. =)

So far so good. Signed myself off after I posted that last reply and got my butt back in gear.

Actually, I can't really ask people to do that, as it's different every day, depending on what I have to do. Most Fridays, I'm done with all the rest of the stuff I needed to do and listings are already running, so I'm actually free to be on DGN or anything else I want throughout the day.

I'm gonna change which day I list soon, too. Listing on Thursdays isn't the best day for me.

Just need to make a to-do list - did that before and it really helped me keep on track.

I do like the PM spam idea, though. But it probably won't be necessary.
