I stress on these tasks rather than completing them because if I don’t have these tasks to stress about, I’ll have to stress about the much worse tasks waiting just behind them in the queue.
Taskception
But how?
Don’t ask me, I haven’t done the thing yet.
Thanks! Just reminded me that I had a relatively simple task to do that would have been weighing on my mind at 2a.
Now the other tasks on my mind are “perpetual tasks” or otherwise aren’t so simple to complete, like finding a new job. So uh, how do I stop stressing about those tasks?
I do drugs about it but I’m not a perfect role model.
At least they’re prescription so there’s an air of legitimacy.
What if I come close to finishing it just to add more work?
What worked for me was to have someone hold me accountable for missing work
Hmm that might be why I’m fine at my actual job but awful at doing anything productive at home. I told my coworker I needed someone to come “help” me by basically sitting in my living room judging all the laundry piles. Like, just come over and talk shit and redirect me when I get distracted every 12 seconds.
I also enjoy the task when I’m involved so I both loved my workplace, had fun, did productive shit and earned a wage
Working at home is hell for me, Starbucks is the next best place in the stead of a workplace
Can you be my accountability?
I… Do work exhibitionism…
I go to Starbucks, most vulnerable spot, preferably inside
Now, if I’m procrastinating, EVERYONE KNOWS IM PROCRASTINATING.
it works.
This is a great idea and I was excited until I remembered how hard it is to think deeply while my anxious mind tries to register everything around it.
But then you worry if you did a good enough job at it…
I didn’t. Which is why everyone involved must hate me.
then undo them only to then do them again but worse than your did the first time
Help I can’t do the task
What is this heresy
