This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for November 14, 2008:
....how do you make decisions?
going through the motions of many
a trick & tool appliances such as
allowing IQ buddies bouncing
freely about in brainstorm mode
applying logic, reason
intellectual thinking
& occasionally madness
asking what would love do now
& others for advice
being guided by intuition
considering possible other/s affected
by evt. consequense/s of decision
following my heart
going with instant gratification
letting gut feeling rule
pro et contra lists
sleeping on it
thinking outside the box
throwing dice or coin
I have finally found a perfect tool
to trick all appliances
I have decided on procrastination
in the deep calm peace of the forest

I use procrastination as a tool too….but my mind was so programmed by the military there are times when I operate like a robot.
my mind used to be run by an inner control freak, procrastinating is teaching me patience & letting go, that it is ok to not know & not necessarly having to make up my mind asap..the flipside however, seems to be a rather fine line between procrastination & doing absolutely zip, nada, nothing or could that be relating to an innate streak of lazyness I ponder..
Procrastination can be a good thing. Waiting for an answer is similar, for me. Giving an answer time to catch up has and is working for me even if the answer is “I do not know right now”.
Hi Sean, thx for stopping by..
yes, waiting for an answer is what I mean by procrastinating as well as my reflection also being a lil ironic poke in the the ribs of my highly efficient ego who would rather be caught on candid camera than saying I dunno know ;-)
Love it!
I'm so a procrastinator in making decisions - for all the reasons you describe and wanting to utilize them all and get it just right and not make the wrong choice- and it almost always pays off, as the answer eventually becomes obvious, in that life and it's course provide my answer and naturally direct my path.
Thank you for helping me see this Tara!
:)
I dunno doesn't know and is loopy as well :-)
I should cut my hair…maybe not,wash it at least…later…brush it then…later…where's the elastic?
Well BB with the hair, go for it, you can always grow it again and change the colour if you like, lol
Tara love your thought flow here,just be you, hugs.
Hi Valerie, 2nd new person to stop by on my blog today, thx for yr kind words : )
melady b I have no cure for loopy other than let's go with notion of it being just one of them 24 hr gig's. max. ..semi bad hair days have turned procrastination into an artform for me; I want to cut it cuz it's a hazzle but I love it long, but I want to cut it cuz it's a hazzle but I love it long, so I get to buy hats & semi bad hair days are bygones ;-)
Gael thank you very much & yes ofcuz I am just me, who else can I be? <3
..& psst you diva poet grande, can I get a point for artistic expression pluueze? ('o')
I tried so hard to make it look kinda like poetry ..lower lip now slightly quivering.
Lol! Love it tara! I can't relate to the bad hair days, mine is so short I just have no hair days.
I enjoyed your decision-making laundry list…please stop by and do some washing at my place soon. I seemed to have procrastinated that one. Couldn't decide…whites or colors first???
How funny that between intellect and love lies madness:-)
heyy sweet friend Doug, maybe you do hats too? : ) & my witty friend Janet having
the audacity of calling my experimental poetry a laundry list & I am soo gonna do
yr laundry.. oh dear, was that a red sock I saw going in with the whites there? ;-)
thank you both for popping in, you gais just made me smile big time <3
& psst: very astute observation on madness Janet, first thing I thought was
what's between my mind & my heart? …..my big mouth! oh nooooo ('o')
It's totally a poem Tara! I was thinking after I posted my comment I should have told you how poetic it was and that I never could have put it so poetically even if I had come up with the thoughts.
So although I'm not diva poet grande(?) I say you get a point and more for artistic expression.
:)
Tara I believe i did seed you for artistic impression, darn it that let the cat outa the bag I am usually anonymous when seeding lol
Very sweet of you to pop back in & reassure me Valerie. I was really just having me a lil giggle with Gael (Zephyr) cuz I'm a great admirer of her poetry & wanted to throw myself at her feet with my lil wobbly baby steps.. go check out her blog, she does some amazing stuff : )
Oops Gael I blew yr cover tee hee.. on the other hand me wee baby steps just got a bit firmer & i might even wobble on over to yr workshop one day ;-)
Tara it's quiet in there at the moment you would be welcome.and bring some friends too. I am thinking of making it a private pod, folk might be more open to critique if it wasn't so on view. There is a thread for no critique also Personally my ego comes way behind to my wish to improve my poetic skills, I wish more were into critique as crits help to raise my skills, only praise can tend to make a poet a bit complacent if they are not careful
I kinda like your process of arriving at your answer to this question, the procastination, then the decision all beautifully bundled up in poetry! I had fun reading and made me reflect, too! You inspire, tara! Hugs and smiles! And perfect title!
