Everything’s spontaneous for me.

As a freelancer, the *only* things I schedule are edits, because that’s time that I’m selling to a client. Even that happens on the spur of the moment a lot of the time as someone has an emergency and contacts me to see if I can fix it for them. So, like, later today, I might spontaneously receive a booking for tomorrow.

Also, with twitter and iChat, I’m socially spontaneous, because I find out what’s going on and decide at that point in time what I’m going to be doing right after the amount of time it takes me to get to that location.

I have a regular 8 hour a day job so that is already scheduled for me. When I’m not working though it is all pretty spontaneous with the exception of planning to go to a few events a month.

I do both. Plan and just let things happen. To be honest I am an awful planner, and I am working on being more scheduled and grounded. I tend to just do whatever I feel like doing.

I used to just let things happen, as I was living in a certain comfort zone for a long, long time.

These days, I’m not really “planning” things on a detailed level, but I am taking more control of where I want my life to be heading.

I think that an amount of spontaneity is fine as long as long as responsibilities are not neglected.

I wake up when I do. I work when I do. Planning occasionally happens. Today I have forgotten to eat so far. Maybe some planning could be good.

Only if they can survive with little sleep!
