Desperately seeking productivity
I seem to have a problem with procrastinating. I can make a mean “to do” list, but it’s difficult for me to focus enough to actually get things done. I’m not lazy, I just get horribly distracted. Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
What’s cooler than being cool?

“Guaranteed”
From the soundtrack to Into The Wild, music and lyrics by Eddie Vedder. Simply beautiful…
On bended knee is no way to be free
lifting up an empty cup I ask silently
that all my destinations will accept the one that’s me
so I can breath
Circles they grow and they swallow people whole
half their lives they say goodnight to wives they’ll never know
got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul
so it goes…
Don’t come closer or I’ll have to go
Holding me like gravity are places that pull
If ever there was someone to keep me at home
It would be you…
Everyone I come across in cages they bought
they think of me and my wandering
but I’m never what they thought
got my indignation but I’m pure in all my thoughts
I’m alive…
Wind in my hair, I feel part of everywhere
underneath my being is a road that disappeared
late at night I hear the trees
they’re singing with the dead
overhead…
Leave it to me as I find a way to be
consider me a satellite forever orbiting
I knew all the rules but the rules did not know me
guaranteed…
A little help?
I’m not sure who reads this, but does anyone know how to post pictures on WordPress without them being insanely large? Thanks.

I saw the movie Into The Wild last weekend and am now reading the book. I have to say there’s something about taking off and hiking out into nature that sounds very appealing to me right now. Much of the film is focused on Chris McCandless’ efforts to break free from the restrictions and expectations of society. I can SO relate to that. I only feel poorly about myself and my situation when I consider where other people expect me to be at this point. Why is it that I’m so focused on what other people think of me? Why do I put so much stock in their opinions instead of my own? Just a little thought to mull over…
