This week is a strange week. On Thursday, I’m traveling to North Carolina to present at a conference. In order to prepare for this trip, I have to finish my reading for class and my leadership reflection earlier than normal, since I have to finish it before I go on my trip.  While on my trip, I’ll be flying on Thursday and Saturday, which may afford me some studying and writing time. But, I will also be in all-day sessions on Friday and Saturday. I have a feeling that by the time I get on the plane on Saturday evening, I’m going to be too wiped out to work. Luckily, I have Wednesday off, so I can pack and do homework before I leave on my trip.

When I’m faced with these potential long stretches of time, I tend to try to squeeze too much work into my time. I don’t always accurately account for how long certain tasks will take. This week, I’m trying to balance my goals, with my real deadlines and my hopeful deadlines. We’ll see how successful I am on Sunday.
