Ultimately, I chose 'complete', because it better fit my need to not just finish *things*, but to do them thoroughly and with all my heart. More times than not, I finish something just to get it done rather than put the right amount of completeness to it.

Close enough to "complete" I guess except I start a bunch of projects and then get distracted and have a difficult time getting to the end of any one project. Maybe I should just use the word "Focus" because that's what I really need to do.<br />Sarah J.

When I complete something worthy of being completed, I'll swap 'complete' for the item.

To complete feels like a positive approach, whereas just stop procrastinating and putting things off has such a negative connotation. *grin*Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-87129554064332332152017-01-11T12:22:00.304-06:002017-01-11T12:22:00.304-06:00Jacquie,

I think it's a matter of deciding what really needs to be completed and what needs to be abandoned because it's just not worth the effort or payoff to see it through to completion.
