As you can see from above, I had a marginally successful week.
On the plus side, I watched significantly less television than I normally do and simply because I had other responsibilities. I prioritized homework over my creative work, which I think is appropriate, considering that I have a paper due on Wednesday and a final project due on Saturday, March 27, 2010.
On the negative side, I didn’t accomplish nearly enough creative work. I went to my writer’s group, which really spurned my motivation. However, I didn’t revise any poems nor did I complete any art journal pages. I started an art journal page on Sunday, which I have to scrap because it does not look good at all. I think I will paint over it and try again.
For the first week out on this new way of tracking my work, I think that these were good results. I stayed focused on my goals and accomplished a good deal of them within my marginal free time.
