I'm kind of in the same situation - too many things to work on and I want them all taken care of NOW. As I was reading your message, for some reason Benjamin Franklin's autobiography came to mind. In it, he listed 12 or 13 things he saw in himself that needed to be worked on. He decided to work on one thing each week, but left open the idea that there may be improvement on things he's not speicfically working on as well. I the book, he kept a chart so he could mark off what area he was working on. Nothing changed immediatly, but he had a plan on how to make the changes slowly so they would be more likely to last.
Maybe I should make up one of those lists for myself. . .
