Reply to comment by SigurdCole in Do it for future-you [Image] by wholesomecomics

Saaame.

I have a trick with this though, oftentimes my issue is just starting and not dreading the chore. So I say to myself, 'okay, this is too much for right now. This is going to be future-me's problem... so what's one quick thing I can do to make it easier for future me?' and then I do a little chunk of it which not only reminds me to finish it later, but since I've already started it's magically easier to wrap my head around it. =)

Nice!

I often frame things in "is there going to be a better time to do this?", or "am I ever going to want to do this more?" If not, I may as well dig in.

Also, recognizing the time I freed up afterwards is super gratifying.
