Things I'm thinking about

The Story of Stuff
Hoping my parents' packrat and hoarding tendencies are not hereditary. This is not to say the house has things piled to the ceiling with narrow tunnels to get from one room to the next, but we do have a lot of stuff.

Getting Things Done

Feasibility- GTD seems really stoic and sterile. I think that we as humans need instructions and guides like this because we tend to get distracted from what we initially deemed important priorities. I'd like to say that I'm able to make goals and stick to them, but I wonder if I would be more efficient of I thought more like a machine--cut out the fat, eliminated the excess, focused on the tasks at hand, and attacked my new to-do lists with precision. But I like my distractions. Stopping to smell the flowers has been what keeps me going. *sigh* What to do, what to do.

I'm going to get rid of some no-longer-needed things in my life.
