Japan : 江の島 once again, part 1

En français
Last summer, in August, I already went to visit 江の島, I returned there last Mai with some friends. There was nothing really different to see there except for the flowers and the Eagles. 江の島 is still a very nice place where to spend the day and exercise walking around the island.

Last Mai we had a barbecue at the 武蔵野公園 near 野川 river. We started in the late morning, ate a lot of meat and took a walk along the river for a bit until it started to rain. There were lots of people there 武蔵野公園 seems to be famous for family barbecue at that time of the year.

I-can-do-it-later list

Today's blog is a vlog again. I really have plenty of "me-time" this week-end.
In this video, I want to introduce people with what I call the "I-can-do-it-later list".
Basically, the "I-can-do-it-later things" on the list are all the little tiny things, really no time consuming things that you are procrastinating on.
As an attempt to take procrastination out of your life, working on the important things you are procrastinating on, like work or doing the washing up is a good thing. But working on more tiny and probably unnoticed things is also a good way to get the problem at the roots. It is good to free your mind from the things that you could actually do quickly but always postpone.
Once things are done you don't need to think about them anymore.
All those little things even if you are not thinking about them constantly are kind of nagging you at time. Your own "I-can-do-it-later" list depends entirely on you, it can be anything. You want to free yourself from them and get more thinking space in your brain for important things?
Start working on your "I-can-do-it-later list" today and I can promise you, you will feel as good as I'm feeling right now.
