I have a saying – if you want something done, give it to a busy person. Sometimes I have something to do and a whole day to do it in, and mysteriously wait to the last five minutes to get it done. If it’s not urgent, it can take a week (I don’t know if I am meant to confess this in New York, it might get me thrown out!)
But give me something urgent to do, better yet, give me 2 urgent and 7 other things to do, and I just power on through. I’m a list lover from way back – I create lists, annotate my lists, rearrange them, really they are works of art – and then, I buckle down and get through them. So if there is something you want to do, start with a list, and give yourself a deadline, even an artificial one, and then watch it happen.
