I am a serial procrastinator and am REALLY trying to get out of the habit of handing work in late. Hopefully this will help me on the road to that. Great post!

I've always had a hard time with creating my own deadlines since I became self-employed (which is like, 90% of my working life). There have been times when life naturally fell into rythms and when I was more vigelant about the seperation between work and play. I'm going to be more intentional about this and see if I can't help but create some more productivity and ballance. Thanks! -Suz What a great post!
