I do enjoy biking and when I use the indoor bike, I do enjoy the non-thinking pace, sprint, non-thinking pace, sprint. It makes the pushing myself easier cause I only have to worry about pushing myself during that sprint. And eventually, or at least eventually if I were to work out on a regular basis, that sprint could last longer. Baby steps, right? :) Thus far I have failed at using the timer. I'm hoping after I get past a large, distracting event this Thursday and Friday, I can try again next week! Hopefully that method works for you!

I think I'm going to try your idea of walking to two songs on my iPhone and running to one song. I hope it helps to keep me motivated! I love your goal about timing your work at your internship. It's great to set aside time to take a break, and I hope you find you're more productive because of it! Thanks for the comment on my Nov. goals post!

The timer idea is a great one - I often do the same thing in my head - "okay, I'm going to work for the next two hours on pitching..." It usually works. And hope you're not staying up too late!

It's interesting to hear the outside perspective, because cheerful is definitely not how I would've described my blog. However, this could be because back in the archives are posts from high school that I still don't know how I feel about them being connected to my more recent posts. Cause, you know, high school is high school. Only thing I miss from that are the band competitions. :) You know, it does go for everyday interactions. Now that I think about it, about half of my friends are the same way, so I hadn't noted the fact we were taking notes in the day to day versus meetings, etc. Ed from above is my college roommate (aka forever roommate), and I knew I could always go to her for notes on pretty much everything. I say go for it. In fact, when I talked to my mom about this, she actually gave me a high five for being a note taker like her. (This made me laugh, because she doesn't often give such enthusiastic high fives.) Thanks!

I love exploring blogs, and yours is infectiously cheerful! I'm TOTALLY with you on the whole taking notes thing - I might as well skip classes if I don't bring a notepad or my laptop! I think it has more to do with the act of recording it than with looking back on it later, though. I simply retain more information when I take the time and extra motor skill! Have you ever found this goes for some everyday interactions and ideas as well? I'd feel dorky if I took notes while people talked with me, but I sometimes feel it would honestly help. :/ Anyway, good luck with your goals - I'll be here in a few weeks to see the progress! -IzzyB Thanks for visiting and encouraging!

I've been a severe night owl my whole life, which doesn't work well with having a job that wants you there during normal business hours. Plus I'd love to have free evenings if I can get myself to work at 8am. So tonight it begins! Heather: I didn't have a specific plan, so I'll try this tomorrow! I have downloaded some timer that's capable to throwing up an application, which is helpful since that's a more obvious interruption than a sound to me. Granted, it'd be sweet if I could only have it interrupt me on my breaks, since those are harder to get away from. Charles:
