I generally know what’s important but very little of it actually needs to be done RIGHT NOW. There’s actually a bunch of important stuff for me to do coming up. First thing in the morning I’ll list it all out and start tackling things one at a time. None of them are that hard or that urgent really. It won’t take me long to get through. But right now I’m focusing on explaining my experience on Lemmy, this context could actually really help somebody turn their life around. Oh dang I forgot to renew my car insurance, they’re closed right now so I can’t do it this instant, that will be at the top of my list tomorrow. Hmm I should probably get the oil changed too. I wonder if I should have them rotate my tires while they’ve got it on the lift. How do those lifts work anyway? Probably like a hydraulic cylinder or something. I wonder what the difference is between hydraulic oil and engine oil. You’d probably be okay putting engine oil in a hydraulic lift, but I wouldn’t trust hydraulic oil in an engine, even if it was clean. Oh I need to remember to clean the living room and vacuum the couch tomorrow. Oh goodness look at the time.
That didn’t really illustrate the point I wanted to make.
Ummm even though I know what needs to be done I struggle to summon the initiative to start it. There’s always something more interesting I could direct my attention to.
Oh, I know what’s important. I can reason about it. It just doesn’t line up with my motivations 😭
I think of it as directing initiative.
