Moreover, I could manage the single most difficult task of the week with greater efficiency and less strain grocery shopping. Normally, shopping and transporting the family’s weekly grocery needs a great deal of organization. It often means taking a taxi.

If I divide it into units I can manage the workload better. Mostly, I focus on my weaker areas. There are my priority areas but they might not be the ones a study group chooses to work on. While a study group sounds like it might be fun and a way to share the work, my study time is more effective when I plan it alone.

Without other people around me I can concentrate fully on the work and take in the material more efficiently.

Despite the temptation to complain immediately, I prefer to keep a cool head and wait to write a letter. Complaining immediately does give some emotional satisfaction and the listener can see the very real upset I am feeling, but it might miss the point of complaining. A letter lets me document the incident and is less likely to end in hard feelings and yelling at someone. After all, the purpose of the letter is to file a formal record or complaint that must be dealt with. Perhaps the service person needs more training. furthermore, I need to find the person in authority that can act on my complaint. The manager might choose to apologize or to offer me a discount to make good on the store’s policy of good service to customers. By taking my time and writing a proper letter of complaint I can express my anger and let the store do something to make me feel better about my purchase.
