FrenchWhen you have a project you have to do…

What does it look like when you have a project you have to do – like redoing your rĂ©sumĂ©, or finally writing the business plan for that great idea you have?
Warning: Lev’s videos are strangely addictive. Click on the other episodes at your own risk… and then don’t be surprised when your project doesn’t get done because you’ve spent all evening watching them! (not that I would know anything about that, of course)

Most people I know have felt like this at one time or another! Very entertaining.

I love how simple these videos are, and how easy it is to relate to them.
Plus, it’s fun to see the drawing being completed in real time (yes, I’m easily entertained, and since I can’t draw to save my life, I’m easily impressed too!
)

How very true! I couldn’t help laughing histerically and saying “Yes!” and “Exactly!” every single second!
Right now, I am working on a Project
and I spend a lot of time worrying about my Project 
, and for some reason my Project is taking me considerably longer than it should (yes, I too would appreciate a good old typewriter 
, and I have already spent a few days neither ENJOYNG myself, nor WORKING on my Project 
Anyway, what I am really saying is that this video is great and supportive in two ways. First, it helps you realize there are other people out there facing the same issue. Second, when you see your situation or problem through someone else’s eyes you discover a humorous side to it, and thus, such situation or problem becomes somewhow less of a deadend. You realize that all you need to succeed is a little more focus, determination, and self-esteem! Not that hard, eh?

So true, Helen!
Ever since I’ve watched this video, I’ve been feeling compelled to spell Project with a capital P (I see I’m not the only one
), and whenever I think of my Project now, it’s always in a weird monotone…
After seeing this, a friend of mine emailed me, “Projects will never be serious again. It’s actually perfect.”

Brilliant! I feel like this these days and so does everyone around me! It may have something to do with the dark onset of winter…
