I have to love a website that tells me to go do something else (“Seriously.”) Lifehacker profiled such a software at “To-done Assigns You Tasks Based on Your Available Time”

The book Organizing the Creative Mind popped up all over my reading a few weeks ago. I took it as a sign that I should buy the book. The author, Scott Belsky, wrote a great summary at “Organizing the creative mind” on Unclutterer.

I love Winnie The Pooh. So the Positivity Blog’s article “Winnie the Pooh’s Guide to a Happier Life” charmed and instructed me. Lovely little read!

It’s counter-intuitive, but Dumb Little Man’s “How Procrastination Can Make You More Productive” has some great stuff. One nugget: “If you really don’t want to work, it won’t matter if your internet is unplugged. You’ll find other ways to procrastinate.”

A trapped bird led to the Copyblogger article “How to Get Free When You’re Feeling Stuck and Scared”. We don’t have to struggle, for as the author says, “Fortunately, I have a neocortex.” The article talks about how to get out of the frantic state I often work myself into.
