Tag: Instant Gratification Monkey Defeated

Third Post, One Day, Productivity 1, Procrastination… 2746289447621

Well, well, well. I failed at somethings while I did annihilate others!

Shall we do the final tally? I think so!

So for those of you just tuning in this is my final post for today, probably for the best (especially those of you who see me in your feed, or get emails when I post… I’m sorry!) but right now I have some exciting news!

I AM DONE BOOK ONE!

That’s right folks! After today’s intense writing session my book sits at a whopping 98,657 words. I could stretch it out, but I am so satisfied with the ending. I’ll talk to my partner about it eventually, but first she must read it all!

  • 6:30 AM – Get out of bed, help my partner walk dogs.
  • 7:00 AM – Feed dogs.
  • 7:30 AM – Play with dogs to settle them.
  • 8:00 AM – Hang out laundry.
  • 8:30 AM – Stack and put on dishwasher.
  • 9:00 AM – Write: Jefferson & The Magician’s Curse. 1200+ Words!
  • 10:00 AM – Tidy Lounge Room.
  • 10:30 AM – Tidy Kitchen.
  • 11:00 AM – Write: Jefferson & The Magician’s Curse. 1200+ Words!
  • 12:00 PM – Lunch & Free Play! Yay!
  • 1:00 PM – Tidy Bedroom.
  • 1:30 PM – Tidy & Clean Bathroom.
  • 2:00 PM – Write: Jefferson & The Magician’s Curse. 1400+ Words!
  • 3:00 PM – Write New Blog Post. Kept writing! Final tally, 5288 Words!
  • 3:30 PM – Vacuum House. Skipped to finish!
  • 4:00 PM – Take dogs out for play time. Shortly!
  • 5:00 PM – Cook & Eat dinner. (Pesto Gnocchi and Garlic Bread!)
  • 6:00 PM – Feed Pups.
  • 6:30 PM – Puppy playtime and free time.
  • 9:00 PM – Shower.
  • 9:30 PM – Puppies to bed.
  • 10:00 PM – Bed.

So after all that today, I don’t really care how my night goes. I don’t care if the gnocchi bursts into flames and the puppies attack me for letting them out late. Even if I have to clean up poop… well, that’ll suck, but-

I’VE FINISHED BOOK ONE!

HUZZAH!

Alright, on that note. Thanks for tuning in and watching me beat my Instant Gratification Monkey senseless. Yes I know how that sounds. I still won. Hurray!

Does time management really work? In a sense it did, because I broke up my writing it gave me time to think about what I would write next which allowed my to hash out the scenes! Will I do this all the time? Probably not! But I definitely should! See you on the other side!
