I am a genius and there is proof

I'm a genius!!!     The book "Getting Things Done" by David Allen proves it....   

Here are some quotes from the book...  

"It's really the smartest people who have the highest number of undecided things in their lives and on their list.".............. "If your body responds to the pictures you give it, how are you likely to feel physically when you think about, say, doing your taxes?  Are you sending yourself "easy", "let's go," completion, success, and "I'm a winner!" pictures?  Probably not.  For just aht reason, what kinds of people would logically be the most resistant to being reminded about a project like that-that is, who would procrastinate the most?  Of course, it would be the most creative, sensitive, and intelligent people!  Because their sensitivity gives them the capability of producing in the minds lurid nightmare scenarios anbout what might be involved in doing the project, and all of the negative consequences that might occur if it weren't don perfectly!  They just freak out in an instant an quit."   "...usually it's the brightest and most sophisticated folks who have the most stuck piles, in their offices, homes, and heads."  

Guess that explains me.  So I am a Genius..... Enough said.

Hi Robin

Good quote that on the money. The only question that I would have is it challenging living with a genius?

Good luck and success

Lou, fortunately my husband is also a genius and also enjoys cleaning.  I must be smarter though because cleaning freaks me out too.

I have often heard that only genius' have an office that looks like it got hit by a tornado (ALL THE TIME)!  That is my office, so I guess I am a genius too, LOL...
