Do you procrastinate? Do you have an ever-growing ‘I’ll do it later’ list? I did. My list was mental rather than written. It was full of jobs or tasks that had been in the back of my mind for a long time. Tasks that I’d notice again and again as I looked around my apartment and thought, “I want to get that done, but not now. I’ll do it later.” That item then went on my mental ‘do it later’ list. This mental to-do list is not an intentional thing. It just happens. Chances are we all have them. Whether at work or at home, something grabs your attention and you think, “I want to do that, but I don’t have time now.” It may be that you don’t have the energy right now, or other things feel more urgent. For whatever reason it gets shunted off to the mental category of ‘later.’ There is an energetic problem with the ‘do it later’ list. It weighs on you, whether you are aware of it or not. As more and more items get added to your list, it gets heavier and heavier. So I decided to ‘work organically’ … First I put on some great music. Then I invest an hour or even a half-hour to start. I choose a location in my apartment, and do whatever job first comes to mind.  It may be a time-sensitive job that must be done that day, or it may be a job on my ‘do it later’ list, a job that has been waiting and weighing on me. Whichever it is, when I get that job done, I feel a surge of positive energy. It feels so good that I am inspired to get something else done. Whatever next grabs my attention. An hour goes by doing whatever jobs come up and I feel energized and content with what I have accomplished. When the hour is over, I stop. This is important. That time limit keeps your energy fresh so that you want to continue the next day. ​When I am working organically, and I finish each job that steps forward to be done, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I get that satisfying feeling of completion. It energizes me and I want to do more. I love the concept of living my life ‘organically’ – and taking the time to let it just happen.
