Notes on goal reaching.

1.  Do what you can when you can.

If you have a BIG paper to do but need more info-- like, you can write some of it but will have to research more later to write further-  and you at the same time have a form you need to get signed and turned in, and there is a good chance your professor is available if you just email him or her--

Do the sure thing:  Email the prof and get the form signed.  This is more effective timewise, and also, releases a burden from your shoulders/brain.  One thing done.  One less weight or stressor.

Do what you can when you can.  This as a general rule should prove to help in general efficiency.

***Note:  consider breaking down the above task to make it more do-able.  Such as, research the effect of the market for honey on bees; research the similarities between beekeepers ("beekeeper culture"); research what is being done today to help the bees; write the introduction.    You can pick one of these tasks and accomplish it versus the HUGE, undefined task of "Get work done on paper" or "Research bees."   See the difference?
