I am struggling with my discipline when it comes to organizing and settling into my home. I think this stems from my "all or nothing", slightly manic and obsessive-compulsive nature. That has to be it.
See, I have a hard time functioning in chaos. Instead of finding all the little things I can do in order to chip away at the mess, I prefer to bury my head and simply do nothing. I become paralyzed and overwhelmed. I end up wasting my time on Facebook or computer games or watching a moving I've seen a hundred times for the hundred and first.
I have great vision and great plans. I have wonderful ideas about all the things I want to do. I lack discipline and thus lack follow-through. My house, even before the move, has always been filled with things half done. Scrapbooks started and then stashed away; cross-stitch projects with the vague shapes of flowers and words. The move has magnified my negligence and gross lack of organization.
So my challenge, now, is to create a workable plan of attack. My goal is to develop some discipline. I'm not sure how I stumbled upon the link but somewhere, in rambling through the various blogs I follow, I found 21 Days to a More Disciplined Life from Money Saving Mom. It's worth a shot . . .
