>When I genuinely enjoy doing something, I never have to put effort into avoiding falling into a rut. I could very well know, on an intellectual level, that I will enjoy doing something, because I enjoyed it plenty of times in the past, yet somehow not "get" it until I physically start doing the activity. It's as if my "body" needs to be reminded. Add to this the concept of activation energy, and not having a well established plan, and I can spend my day doing things that are both "bad for me" and not even particularly enjoyable.
