Something I’ve noticed is that the worst thing I can do, strangely enough, is to write the task down on my todo list. While it might make me feel good in the moment to take a minute to write it down (at least I’ve made some kind of progress, right?), it now poisons the entire todo list; I can’t bear to look at the list because I know it includes a task that I don’t want to think about.
- lifeplusplus 5y ago100% ... I read somewhere to only think about just the next step.. Nothing more. And I did. No grand plans just what I'll do tomorrow. I was going great.. then I started to get ideas and I made a to-do list I haven't worked touched it in 4 days now... It's like mind is at limit of processing.. like on 2% battery you can get by on light work auto pilot but do something intensive it will shut down, which is try thinking about tasks in to do list why? Not sure but I think probably because I visit reddit, HN, other stuff daily and already have brain bucket full of things to think about... I'm not sure how doers type manage it
