Don't get distracted.

I don’t mind the repeating nature of things as they are now as long as there is progress in repetition.
Finding that progress when your mind has been thrown off cadence can be difficult.
So what do we do now?
Do we look for jobs, make our own, or do nothing at all.
Over this quarantine I’ve had moments of high hopes and pure despair and what I miss most is taking photos of people.
I think that’s okay.
Collectively these feelings all just make me want to take more photos.
Boredom gives me too many ideas so the way I am deciding on what to follow now is really about repeatability.
Can I do it everyday or multiple times a week.
If the answer is no then I scrap it.
This brings me to my next thought.
Why do we stray from our daily tasks when we clearly know what they are?
For me it’s impulse control.
When I get the impulse watch a youtube video it often spirals in a vortex.
Now that I understand many of my impulses I am able to stop them much easier than before.
There is another type of distraction I often face.
Replacing important tasks like finishing a pitch deck for a brand for less important tasks ex. cleaning my room.
If you’re making a schedule for tomorrow have a hierarchy of what is most important and tackle that shit first.
This is something really helping me make progress in my goals this month that I didn’t last month because I let smaller housekeeping tasks take over my days.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
Atticus
