Be more organized and stop procrastinating. I have already made a "to do list" of goals I want to accomplish and deadlines I need to complete so hopefully by looking it over and set daily and weekly goals on a consistent basis I will constantly remind and remotivate myself to get stuff done.

Clutter-weeding ...
(rather than attempting to have a big clear-out, or even to clear one room, I plan to sometimes pay attention to a single shelf, or drawer, or equally manageable-sized spot and identify what I can throw out, or give to charity shop, or sell on ebay and action that decision immediately).

Imma let you finish, but mine is to try to be more mindful.

I'm with you on that one...being more mindful is my number one priority.

I am currently reading "Wherever You Go, There You Are" by Jon Kabat-zinn. If you ignore the references to buddha/buddhism, and focus on the practice of meditation, then the idea is you will be more mindful by living in the now. My yougest son calls this paying attention. Yep.
