I killed it today. Only shortcomings were taking too long to warm up, and taking a nap after lunch. But I made up for the lost time during my cooldown block.
I feel pretty tired. I wonder what tomorrow will be like. It would be great if I could sustain this.
The best thing was locking lunch in stone. The result was two uninterrupted chunks of productive bliss. When lunchtime is mutable, it often gets delayed, causing a chain reaction of destabilizing events. And there’s weird psychological stuff… like if I’m very hungry, I seem to revert to a primitive mentality of “hungrily” working on whatever task I’m on at the moment, with a fixation that’s more about maintaining the intense state than ending it. I don’t know! It seems like the inner workings of one’s brain are so weird, so variable from person to person, sometimes it’s a wonder we can get anythingdone cooperatively.
it may look a little batshit nuts, but I think he’s on to something.
Sign me up for batshit nuts. My standards project has really, really, helped me.
