That date is now, and I have some important decisions to make. For one, I'm tired of ADD taking away bits and pieces and great big chunks of my life. I can't completely get rid of that happening, but I will be doing my best to control my situation. Being retired and living a less controlled lifestyle, I tend to let the days go past without noting their passing. That changes today. To the best of my ability I will be tracking what I'm doing and how I'm handling the situations I find myself in. I will also try to be forward looking in life, not just living in the moment but actually planning my days and weeks. I will have to do what I have to do.
I've been thinking about writing a book for some time now, and the time to begin is now. I have to start planning and recalling all I want to write about. The book will be about ADD and money, and how it has affected my ability to handle money, deal in relationships, and plan for retirement. This is just the first thoughts on this so more will be forthcoming. I've been dealing with the effects of a lack of planning and foresight. I've had my eyes open so wide by Suze Orman I can plainly see where I could have done so much better in my life. That old saying applies: "Too soon old, too late smart!"
Another thing I'll be dealing with is everything I'm involved in! I've got so many iron in the fire that I'm about to go stark raving mad trying to keep up with it all. I'm committed to some of it until the end of the year, but then I am going to quit some of those seven plus positions I hold right now. I hate to do it, because of course I just want to please everybody, but I just can't do it any more. I'm about ready to have my phone taken out because I'm too accessible to those who "want some guidance" or have "just one little thing" they want me to do. I'll keep you informed how it goes.
Well, this is the end for today. I'll try and be back tomorrow with some insight or the other. 'Till then...
