Today was a day of domestic catching up - doing laundry, stocking up on supplies - and by the time I finished and wandered over to Rockhound State Park, Deming NM I found all the hookup sites spoken for. Rockhound is a popular park and I wasn't surprised to find it full but the much larger Pancho Villa State Park, Columbus NM is nearly empty. I wonder why.

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.
