Here's my old man smoking a butt and helping out by drilling some holes when my wife isn't threatening to spray him with the garden hose to put out the cigarette in his face!

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance. I began organizing my ideas about what I was trying to accomplish. The great thing about writing things down on a computer is that you can cut and paste. You can brainstorm about goals, tasks and resources and then move them around on the screen to where they fit. Some ideas don't fit at all and can be deleted. You can e-mail your friends with your preliminary ideas and get feedback. You can decide exactly what you want. The necessary steps and order begin to emerge on paper. Instead of your project becoming a big mistake, you can execute a step by step list that keeps you from forgetting critical items or being side tracked or lost. If you really want to be fancy on your planning, you can estimate how much time each task takes. That way, when you have two hours, you can quickly decide what you can do during that time.
