I'm trying to gather thoughts on how to approach problem solving or long task in a way to chunk steps just right to match my natural stamina. There are a few things that make working ok if not delightful: - generating ideas to try - having an idea of the space covered - keeping track of progress (even a well marked dead end feels good, it's done work) .. bookmarks in a way - placing little context notes on bookmarks so when you jump in you're ready to plug your mind in more easily - crafting a bed to try an idea with very low friction. Take a good amount of time to devise your bench/lab and then iterate smoothly. - all of this with the notion of quickly converging toward what's good and trim what's not I'm failing hard at it right now but I still believe it's one good way.
