i recently grasped the concept of the urgent/not important square of the Eisenhower Matrix.
| URGENT | NON-URGENT | |
|---|---|---|
| IMPORTANT | actual to-do | nice reminder |
| NOT IMPORTANT | absurd | busywork |
this is where tasks that feel stressful live. they are time-sensitive in that they have a deadline (set by me), but if they do not get done, there are virtually no consequences (apart from my own disappointment).
assumption: personal to-do lists
gentle reminder to still write these tasks down, in an attempt to condition my brain to grasp the futility of these efforts. i am loving it so far.

obsession is the enemy and the catalyst
i must carry on nonetheless
