rather than once every three business days for one hour stretches at a time. you’ll get better at your craft and see tangible results. half the time you end up running past 10 minutes bc you enjoyed yourself.
whatever the thing is, usually I make a deal with myself to just try it for five minutes, and then if I'm bored or still unmotivated I can put it down. most often that's just enough time to get me invested in doing the thing and work on it longer
Get up and say, "I'm just gonna do this for 10 minutes." And mean it.
Ususally if you plan an hour or more it's impossible, but what's a few minutes? Before you know it you're in the groove and don't need to stop. But you could, if you wanted/needed to. That mindset shift makes all the difference.
two women next to me on the train are having an insightful heart to heart. a guy behind me is clearly flirting with this girl and you can tell it’s mutual. we all have rich, rich inner lives :)
