Productivity tip: Better than nothing

Learnt a good tip from my therapist that has helped me start work.

If you are struggling to start any work, set up your work space and put on media enjoy. This can be YouTube, a film, a podcast, anything.

Try and make as many notes as you can during the media. It may not be perfect work, but it is something to slowly get yourself into the mood to study. Sometimes you just don't want to work but you can get the ball rolling by using something you enjoy as a catalyst.

Even if your notes are pure garbage, that is okie because it still means you started work. Keep reducing how much media you are using till you are getting into the flow of everything.

This has helped me more times than I can count!

In 4th grade, my bff was in a death feud over chess with a boy in our class but instead of competing like normal people they decided that the best way to determine who was chess master was for each of them to select one of the two biggest idiots in class and teach them to play chess, My Fair Lady style, and see whose idiot won. We are just now, 22 years later, grappling with the moral implications of this exercise.
