Why not call it all Baha'i activity, with writing, family, errands, and other interests as subcategories of the main one? What is your main category? You want to write to help people, but why? I see you have listed Baha'i as 5 percent. What do you give credit to? The reason I ask, is because otherwise it raises the alarm that you are largely seeking for recognition and emotional connection, which isn't a bad thing, if you know it. In both quests, I would like to offer some advice, that I have noticed after doing the exact same thing I have just been talking about, whether or not I was correct about you. I feel you would reach people much more if you talked about your difficulty in life and how you overcame it, and what you plan on doing, as much as you do sharing your techniques of organization and stories of success. Yes you are doing awesome it seems, and as far as organization, you are way better off than me (I don't eat or study or laugh nearly well enough), but I feel you could benefit from self reflection, which sometimes only comes from an emotional experience, which seems to me, like you are somewhat avoiding by organizing your life so much.

I hope your intention was to spark debate. There is no reason this can't be a very fun conversation, but it's not a big deal if you don't want to respond. Chow
