Doing the things you have just put off



I think there is difference between procrastination and putting things off and here is my definition.

Procrastination, to me, it something that needs to be done at certain time and you either don’t do it at all or wait till the last minute to get it done.

Putting things off are thoughts thing that really don’t have any time limit when they have to be completed.

So the thing I did today were things that I put off, but the list keep getting longer and longer. One of the things was a haircut and my hair kept getting longer and longer so that was on the list to do today.

There was these electronic thinks setting by the door of my office waiting to be recycled and how you do that is take it to Best Buy. Also my one printer was out of yellow ink, but my other printer had plenty so I could put off getting some for a while.

Instead of going out to lunch I picked up my soon to be lighter body. Yes I have lost almost eight pounds, sense January 1, 2010.

The first stop was to Office Depot for the ink and also noticed I need 44 cent stamps and it is much easier to get them there than waiting in line at the post office. Who know they might close the post office near me, so Office Depot works.
Then I zipped to Best Buy to turn in my old electronic items to be recycled. A very nice man at the front door of Best Buy told me where to take my electronics to be recycled.

Can you believe there was a line? So being the friendly guy I started talking with the guy in front of me. Somehow I told him why I was in line and he said he would turn the items for me, wasn’t that nice.

So I gave him one of my eight steps of happiness cards and on the way out I gave the nice man at the front door one to.

Here’s something else that I have been putting off, learning how to pay my bills electronically. I’ll have to learn to pay my bill electronically, because they could close our post office and take away our mail box.

I think I put off more that I procrastinate.

Happiness with wealth to you
