So I sat down and thought about why I can never finish any of my goals I make.
Basically...it's because I put too much on my plate.
I try so hard to concentrate on so many goals at once that I end up NOT accomplishing anything.
So I decided I need to focus on one goal, then move on to another.
Goal one: Breed my snakes.
The list:
Build rack to hold snakes: Check
Get snakes that can breed: Check
Breed snakes: Starts next week
Make incubator for when snakes lay eggs:
Build hatchling rack to hold babies:
Order large amount of frozen rats for feeding, in turn saving money:
When those steps are complete, I move on to my next goal;
Driver's license.
Why not get the license first?
Because if I do, I won't be able to afford the incubator and rack...key elements to the success of my breeding project.
See what happens when I break it down and LOGICALLY plan.
It makes sense!
Now somewhere in there I'd like to find a girl...but you know what...
the more I concentrate on that, the less successful I am...
so fuck it. It'll happen when it happens.
After the snake thing and license are out of the way, I can work on saving money, eventually leading to vehicle and new job.
I want to take classes, and I have to apply for the financial aid in January, but that shouldn't affect my other plans.
I can get to classes with or without the license and car, it'll just be easier WITH them...
and classes won't be until summer/fall, so that works well.
I love logic.
It's so flawless when emotion doesn't fuck it all up.

Try to stay carless as long as possible. I'm living in the city now and wish I didn't have a car. It's so nice taking the train every where.
