Hi, I'm Joy the Procrastinator. Because of my habit, I've been missing out on a lot! I joined Spark People to remind me that I want to get over that, and join the flow and live. Update 2011: I wrote that a few years ago, and truly have enjoyed transforming my life. I plan my fun quite deliberately and enjoy knowing that I have a schedule full of good times ahead with my friends and family. My remaining challenge is to question some of the core ideas about and demands on myself that have given me some misery in the past, and to live life as a good enough person.

To learn to live deliberately and well, so that I have energy for giving generously and joyously.

Making lists. Just "doing it" even if I can't do a perfect job of it. Getting rid of things I don't NEED to do that I'm not excited about. Trying to learn to PLAN fun, so that I'm not just trying to sneak it into my To Do time. When I'm down on myself, ask WHO is demanding this of me, and, is it a real concern I should be tackling at all?

46 year old computer programmer from central Ohio. Past history includes 7 years as a flight attendant, 8 as an Ohio Army National Guardsman.

I love to read: primarily history, anthropology, and sociology books. I love to learn from other people, to hear their stories. I love to run and learn how to do new things.
