"And my own 'before and after' tale is definite proof. "Last year, I didn't work," she said, "and it seemed like I had all the time in the world But my biggest project week after week was writing and re- writing detailed lists of all the jobs I should do in my home "I would begin each day with 2 coffee break and a reading of one of my lists. Then, as I sat and sipped coffee, I tried to decide whether this was the day to clean out the kitchen cabinets, put the basement in order, work outdoors on the ~~ Wilson Furniture's. ts SPECIA patio or go to the store to pick out paint for a guest room that needed re-doing. "But since I had time and no need to. get started 'now' I would always end each coffee break by post- poning the jobs till 'later.' "Later,, however, never came, so as spring turned. to summer the only accomplish- ment I could show for the sea- son was all wrapped wp in a volume of lists that never re- sulted in any action "When fall arrived," she said, "our income needed a boost, so I had to trade my unlimited time for the routine of a job."

"But this time, as I wrote my lists, I also drew up a schedule that would push me into using my 'Now's' and make me forget about the 'Later's.' ACCOMPLISH MORE "As a result of this approach forced on me by a job, I have done more in a few weeks this year than in a whole season in the past. I have cleaned out the kitchen cabinets, put the hase- ment in order, painted the guest room by working at night and for spring Sat- urdays to work, "So srepared the atio by y early on my own 'before and | Lectures On Caves And Crystals | Given At Rock And Mineral Club |the Luray Caverns in Viriginia.
