'later'..

.. that's what I think whenever I got to do something. Procrastination is in my blood. I am a piscean, and we are known to be lazy and procrastinating.

It's taking over my life from me. I don't seem to be doing anything other than drinking coffee.

Just when i realised this and thought about getting things done out of me, I read this post titled 'I'll just get the file out'. Pretty impressive, inspiring, and simple technic to follow.

I did my Toastmasters speech last week after ages. It was nice to break the break and get in to some act. Oh, I don't believe I haven't written about Toastmasters here yet!!!

ps: I found out that there is an orkut community called 'Procrastination'. Anyways, I don't think much posting happens there, all the members of that community will be thinking 'later' when it comes to posting :-)

pps: ವಿಚಿತ್ರಾನ್ನದಲ್ಲಿ ಜೋಶಿಯವರು procrastination ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಬಹಳ ಹಿಂದೆಯೇ ಬರೆದಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಲಿಂಕ್ ಇಲ್ಲಿದೆ.

I am a big procastinator. I don't do anything except saying 'later'..'innoo tuMbaa time ide'. I could not help myself but burst into laugh when I read - such as getting our tax returns in on time - I think author is referring to me here:-D

There is one very good book in Kannada on psychology "manasu illada maarga" It is wonderful. Read it. Author name is some "Subrahmanya". He is from Mysore and is no more (Don't remember correctly).

Yes, "manassu illada maarga" is a wonderful book indeed, written by Dr. Meenagundi Subrahmanyam. He was from Karkala and settled in Mysore. He was a good person, good friend, good counselor, good mentor, good therapist... I had the previledge of knowing him when I was growing up in his front yard as a tenent-neighbor.

Recently, within a month's span there were two eclipses (one lunar and one solar) in India.

Did you take a clue from those, two get yourself partially eclipsed? I mean, you are visible in blogging/commenting(to blogs) etc but disappeared from emailing/chating?
