Prioritizing is a good thing

I’ve decided I need to sit down and prioritize the things that have been pulling my attention lately. My last few posts have talked some about being tired and not having enough time, if you’ve been following along. I realized tonight that there are a lot of things I’m doing that are neat, but absolutely unnecessary within the whole picture of my life. If I can sit down and eliminate some of those things I think I’ll clear up some of my time and not be constantly running.
I read an article today about how KDE 4.0 is supposed to be really, really nice compared to the latest version. Can’t wait to see it, although I doubt I’ll use it as I’m a huge fan of Fluxbox and all its simplicity. I will for sure be looking at the new KDE though even if it’s only through using Xnest. It’s a handy little tool that allows you to run multiple desktops at once. Here is a link to an article by Linux Journal’s Marcel Gagné on how to get it working and some screen shots. Good stuff.
Nothing really noteworthy in the news except for a few Star Wars things. One, we should soon have some Star Wars stamps available to us from the United States Post Office. Two, Bono from U2 was knighted recently. Supposedly you can’t call him Sir (as he’s not British) and his youngest son thought that he was becoming a Jedi Knight. He wasn’t?

Prioritizing is definately key. The other thing I like to do is not make any decisions until I have to. J likes to take scenarios that may or may not happen and then play out every scenario in her mind and find solutions to them. She then stresses about all the different solutions. I figure I’ll wait until a decisions has to be made and then come up with the solution. Don’t get me wrong I like to be prepared and may think about upcoming events but I don’t stress about them or make decisions based on “maybe’s”. Between this, prioritizing and procrastination you can really have some smooth running days.
