Productivity

I've been very productive today, and I'm happy to brag about that. It's been a while since I've felt the urge of motivation, and today it took hold and whipped me into shape. I've only been working for a few hours, but I've got a ton accomplished.

I waded through a text that I had been avoided and took all my notes on it.

I created a color coded literary/historical timeline to help me to visualize important date/events/publications in my literary period. (I really struggle with dates and need all of the help I can get.)

I've clarified and fine-tuned my existing notes thus far.

I've started going through my next text ... but I think I'm going to break for lunch.

I must say that Luminotes has really made this process a helluva lot easier. It's such a great note-taking program that can be used for anything. I just happen to employ it for use in diss research, but I know people who use it for brainstorming their poetry and novels as well as organizing recipes and other creative tasks. It's pretty fantastic. And, the best part is, it's free!
