reflecting on my failed attempts

During last week's support group meeting, George Chu asked us to reflect on failures in 2011.

Yesterday I had three that demotivated me, threatening to put me down into minor depressions:

1. I promised to finish SMMUv2 Arch Overview by end of this week. I let my mind distracted by other things such as talks about PCIe and BCAST data flow. I got scared that my mind works so out of focus, just like I am an ADD. God, what can I do?
2. I was late for Dr. Gan appointment by 20 minutes. What did I do? I kept trying to write a few more slides in my Arch Overview, procrastinating the scheduled departure.
3. Most importantly, my expectation of getting my ION article published by LWN.net is not going anywhere. I'm scared. What a failure I am!
