That's All For This Week...




Here's a simple mathematical principle for predicting how much work I will get done:

1. Make a goal for the week.

2. Immediately subtract 50 percent of that goal (takes care of the grandiosity factor).

3. Subtract another 10 percent for bad weather (too hot, too cold, raining, etc. etc)...

4. Subtract another 10 percent for the Sloth factor....

5. Subtract another 10 percent for other distractions: e-mail; beer; wine; doggy walks.

Which means that I will get around 20 percent done of my original goal. That's pretty accurate...
