I've been logging my time for about a year and a half and I think it's the best thing that anyone could do for his/her work. I not only track my worktime, I also track when I cook, bath, make a tea, talk by phone, read rss, etc. So I know each day if I was procrastinating or not. I've found some weeks I was working only 20 hs at the beginning, now never is lower that 30/35. For tracking the time I'm using a great tool called Grindstone (it's free) (although planning tasks and make a todo list I feel better using just paper and pen) This post it’s a little old but I have to comment.

Then you are thinking, oh my, what project to work on? :) :) The only flip side to that is that sometimes you can create TOO much. Then you are thinking, oh my, what project to work on? :) :)

The strategy that has worked best for me is to keep myself occupied during the flight, either with movies or reading. I still get nervous before the flight, but one the plane is in the air I'm fine. Like most things in life, we tend to imagine the worst case, regardless of how likely it is. Flying is much safer than most modes of transport, and it gets safer every year. Enjoy your flight :) Hi Chloe,

"How Thoughts become Things." It says in the trailer that it is a film by Douglas Vermeeren. To me it looks great and I am very interested to see it.
