Primitive camping along Mule Creek Road

After having spent the night in the first rest area west of the New Mexico border I discovered the next morning on my journey down off the plateau there are several really nice primitive campgrounds a few miles farther west that I would have preferred to stay at.

Westbound views

This is a beautiful road to travel heading westbound. The views as you come down off the high plateau are gorgeous. I regret now I didn't stop for some pictures.

Commitment is the Glue that Binds

But, the component of personal commitment is my favorite lesson from GTD project planning. It means I’ve knowingly agreed to let this thing become an acceptable interruption in my life. It means that other things might have to wait because of this, and that’s okay. Maybe most importantly though, commitment is the glue that binds your daily activities to your “higher altitudes”—it’s how you can make sure your values and your priorities in life are reflected in what you do every day.
