Sarah, you don’t need to do anything before calling a realtor, just call. She or he will tell you what you can do to best improve the value of your property. Then you can focus on the steps that will give you the best return on your limited time and money. Maybe the as-is value is $150,000 but if you really clean that bathroom tile, fix one light fixture, and replace the screen door, you can ask $155,000. Now you can look forward to being paid handsomely for simple tasks instead of them being obstacles. Make negatives into positives.

I just started reading Getting Things Done and found this website. This post about procrastination could be me, but substitute graduate portfolio for check engine light. My biggest struggle is focusing on the complexity of the problem, so I remain in a constant state of stress. The book and this post, specifically, are helping me set specific tasks so I can take steps toward completing the last project I need in order to graduate.

Along with the portfolio hanging over my head, I also have to get my house ready to sell by the end of March. I have been dreading all the tasks I need to do before I can call an agent.

Clarifying what I need to do for both projects should help me with my procrastination problem.
