Tuesday, December 30, 2008 - Davis Mountains State Park, Fort Davis TX
< previous day | archives | next day >
I was going to spend a day or two in Alpine but got a bit out of sorts over a slow gas pump and a grumpy propane attendant and headed on up to Davis Mountains State Park only to discover a hold on my credit card, I'm going to guess from using it at two gas stations within 10 minutes of each other.
Then the site assigned to me by the whacky park ranger turned out to be too short and sloped for comfort. I'm still out of sorts and grumpy too. Bleeeeh....
At least the deer are still friendly.

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.
