On leaving things unfinished

Friday 1st October, 2010 - 2:48pm with 1 comment

I absolutely despise leaving things unfinished. I really hate having to work on something else when I’m already engrossed in something. For example, when typing an email, I like to devote all my time to that email. I don’t want to be typing it out and then having to do a favour for someone. This primarily relates to distraction. Yeah, I know I think it’s fair if I distract myself – eg. start playing in Photoshop when my university readings get boring.

When others distract me, and say, ask me for a favour, they might not know that they’re distracting me – which is all cool – but I’m hoping they can be patient enough to wait for me to finish what I’m doing first.

The primary point I’m trying to make here is that I hate leaving tasks unfinished. Regardless of the time it takes me to do said task, or how much I am enjoying it, I do not like having to leave it unfinished. This is the reason I like making plans. I don’t want someone to just butt in and ruin my plan.

All these external factors greatly affect my annoyance towards leaving things unfinished. I just don’t like having so many “things to do”. I love to-do lists. But when there is so much to do on there, that I started and never finished, that takes me back to ask the question what, really, stopped me from finishing it?

Oh my god. I feel the same, here. I know how annoying it is. When someone distract you while doing something.. LOL. You can say, If I leave things un-finished. I won’t get any sleep, and if I did. I sleep-talk. or sleep-walking. Yeah you know. It worries me.
And people must wait, for you to finish the things, it kind of respect. And if they don’t it means they are rude. So, hope you won’t get distracted anymore. Cause I know how bad is it.
